�Datin3 Evolution
ust as Poodle Skirts, Hula Hoops and
Betty Boop have become a thing of the
past, so have certain views towards dating. Girls no longer have to wait by the phone
for that "Special Someone" to call or sit at
home on a Saturday night because they remain dateless. Likewise, boys no longer need
to spend weeks of hard earned money for
their dates, The Eighties have arrived!
Throughout the years, the attitude toward
teens dating has changed. Unlike the old days
of the SO's and 60's, the 80's girl has no fear
of asking a guy out. The guys no longer ha\(e
to make all the plans or the first moves, so
they feel less pressure. Twenty years ago,
girls expected guys to pay for the dates. Now
the girl often offers to pay for the date, or the
couple goes dutch. If the couple desires to
feast at a nice restaurant or attend a school
dance, the costs add up. By splitting the cost,
the couple can afford special activities, while
both contributing to the relationship.
In the past years, not a guy or girl dared to
stay home on a Saturday night-"Date
Night." It proved deadly if a person remained dateless. At the present time, the
weekend allows kids to "Hangout" or "Cutloose" either with buddies or out on a date.
Dates do not occur on a set night anymore,
but rather when the couple can afford to go
out! Not having a boyfriend or girlfriend presents few problems since people seem to like
being free and choose to hangout in large
groups, instead of clinging as couples. The
80's brings less pressure to have a boy-girl
friend relationship than before.
Throughout the years, attitudes towards

With friends
R
RRRRing! As the bell for the next class sounds,
students depart from their confined classrooms
and emerge into the hallways, congregating with
friends they've seen just the period before. Only a precious five minutes remain for brief conversation with
classmates travelling in the same direction. However,
having friends with whom to share those few moments
greatly enriches that time. Friendships, an integral part
of high school, provide students the environment in
which to grow not only academically, but socially as
well.
Whether in the cafeteria, resource centers, or the
Oakton Lobby, friends always talk jovially to one another. On one of those off days when the sun doesn't
shine or studying all night does not pay off for an exam,
and everything else simply goes every which way but
the way intended, knowing there is a smiling friend to
reach out to provides comfort and encouragement.
When entering high school as freshmen, students felt
everything loomed big and foreign in front of them. The
older students had already established their positions
and identities, leaving the freshmen feeling a bit insecure about where they stood. But during that first day,
students made new acquaintances which soon developed into lasting friendships, creating memories of never-to-be-forgotten happy times and not so happy times.
Treasured moments and treasured memories are synonymous with friendships. Returning to school after
long vacations and weekends becomes easier and a little
less foreboding knowing expeditions and experiences
can be shared with friends. As the number of days until
graduation dwindles, the realization that friends will
soon embark on their separate paths becomes more and
more of a reality, and they find saying good-bye the
hardest part of high school. Each becomes richer for
having known the other person, for as the favorite movie "It's a Wonderful Life" stresses, "No man is a failure
who has friends."
Christina Gabriel
A smile during a conversation can leave a lasting impression on a friend.
Students often share simple moments that add up to lasting relationships.
8ensalional 8ummer
he last bell of the school year rings, and suddenly, the summer begins. An indescribeable sense of
freedom overwhelms students, and with their
free time during the summer, they relax and forget
about everything associated with school. For many people, this includes friends, too. When the summer break
begins, most students do not disregard their friendships, but extend them to new and exciting summertime experiences. A chemistry study group may turn
into a beach party; a filmstrip becomes a trip to a film
festival; a few lunch mods become a day at the Taste of
Chicago; or a gym period becomes a volleyball game at
the park. Though not as simple as seeing friends at
school everyday, making summer plans often provides
richer experiences with friends to cherish always.

urs is a strange generation. Walking through
our carpeted hallways,
one can't help but see the social groups that make up the
diverse population of Niles
West, each with its own unique

distinguishes it from the rest.
Many of these groups think

Girls did not primp in front of
the mirror, and sports especially body building, were frowned
upon by students of both sexes.

this sounds to us. Few things
are of greater concern to our
generation than appearance,

late I 960's and early 70's, for
that was when originality and
individuality were really in

rebellion against authority and
establishment, but they were
also a time when teenagers had
fun and sometimes upset the
status quo just for the thrill of
it.
Some students in those days
believed a thought commonly

before they enter their teens,
and boys start working out in
the weight room shortly thereafter. In fact, it seems our generation will go to any means to
improve appearance. Students
even take steroids to accelerate
their natural development. The
mirror is also back in style.
Girls and boys alike spend
quite a bit of time checking
their appearance, practicing
smiles.
What really distinguished stu-
dents of that era from other
groups was their tendency to
have an opinion about everything and to be outspoken about
those opinions. For instance,
during a teacher's strike, the
students who supported the
teachers would join them in the
picket lines. Three years ago
when the teachers picketed
here for higher wages, no citings of concerned students
were reported, and the overwhelming response of students
was one of delight: an extra vacation - what a nice treat! As
for political involvement of
students nowadays, there is
considerable interest in the national elections, but less in local politics. Some students
worked this past fall for republican and democratic campaigns. For the election of
members of the school board,
which affect students' lives
more immediately, however,
there is much less inclination to
be involved.
Perhaps the students' greatest concern was the war in
Vietnam. They generally
shared in the view that the
United States had no business
being in the war. But whatever
opinion they held, their concern and awareness caused
them to be confused and disillusioned. These thoughts were
reflected in their writings and
artwork collected in OPUS 1,
which is now known as West of
Edens. Underground newspapers also emerged at this time
and were about the length of
our present West Word issues.
Some similarities in the spirit
of those journalists and authors
of papers such as SPLAT! reflect the desire to give extra
opinions on current events.
Just as students in those days
had opinions for almost every
subject, so were they interested
in almost everything. Religion
and race were not things taken
into consideration as much as
they are now, with the popularity of ethnic clubs and Bible
study groups. Nevertheless, in
such a diversely populated high
school, most students find

sors to SPLAT!,

common interest with people of
differing races and religious
beliefs, and many students date
people of other backgrounds.
As for disturbing the status
quo, students then perhaps had
more threatening restrictions
to battle than today. For instance, there was a strictly enforced dress code which require boys to wear slacks and
button-down shirts and girls to
wear blouses and skirts which
reached below the knee. Girls
would not be allowed to come
to school wearing pants, until a
plan was devised by the student
body. Through announcements
in the underground newspaper,
a day was designated when all
· the girls were to come to school
wearing pants. Many did, and
because it would be absurd to
send home nearly half the student body, they were allowed
to stay, and the restrictions began changing to the students'
favor.
These days, the battles are
fought through the student
senate. No individual groups
seem to take the initiative in

Mikhail Lyubansky
There exists far less oppression and reason for anger for
students today than there was
twenty years ago. Though we
are products of a different era,
students nowadays share in
many ways the spirit of students twenty years ago. We
emulate them quite often,
wearing tie dye shirts, torn
jeans, looking very much like
"Dead heads," and we enjoy
the music that they . created.
We have our own individual
styles, however, that distinguish our two generations. Students now are much more involved in school activities,

Sharing thoughts and ideas are important parts of students' days. Much
learning goes on outside of the classroom in discussion with friends.

Yang does not merely look to the past. He concentrates building a bright

Bush's Victory
Post-Inauguration Results
In a great election year as the one recently passed, opinions of students are aroused and displayed in a surprisingly strong voice. The school mock election found George
Bush the victor of the 1988 presidential election, but how
did they feel about their decision afterwards, and what
other concerns were raised by the election?
How do you see the next four years under Bush's Administration?
--- 64.6% see the term as favorable, 25.3% see it otherwise. An important thought for teenagers as they grow is
whether they feel they have an influence with a vote.
--- 58.2% said they think it would give them power,
37.9% disagreed. Finally, many outside issues were
brought up in the campaign. It was hard not to begin to
become aware of current events while following the election. Here are the issues students listed as the greatest
human concerns:
threat of war/need for peace

With Upperclassmen
o one can deny that the more
concentration one puts into
something, the less of a problem
it becomes, and the more benefit it produces. Inspiration is all one needs to
open himself to billions of possibilities.
School has been established to provide
the necessary inspiration. It introduces
students not only to knowledge but also
to other people and interests. Seniors
often look back to their years at West
and wonder why they didn't do certain
things, many times regretting opportunities passed. But because of their
somewhat developed maturity, seniors
also look back and realize how many
things they have accomplished, and
how much they have enjoyed themselves. A simple comparison between
N
the attitudes of people who participate
in activities can be made, for instance.
Freshmen love to participate in clubs to
be "in the crowd," sophomores participate passively, juniors because they begin to realize how good it would look on
their transcripts, but seniors through
the years have grown to truly care
about the organizations and the people
in them. They have broken from the
crowd and become individuals, doing it
all because they realize their presence
makes a difference. It is an arrogant, yet
humbling mindset, since along with individuality comes responsibility. It is a
mindset that may be applied to all facets of life, especially in high school.
Seniors have struggled to build themselves, so now they live freely, without
Seniors' Empire

Niles West their "Empire." Wherever this notion emerged from, juniors are wise to the misconcep-

tion and accept this absurd facade.
They know that seniors are all
talk and no action.
Juniors, however, do have a
slight sense of admiration for their
fellow upperclassmates. Seniors
exhibit a feeling of freedom as
they "float" through their last
year at West with a carefree attitude; they stand ready to take a
step h igher in life, and ready to
respond to different experiences
regardless which path of life they
choose.
On the whole, juniors and seniors consider each other friends,
sharing mutual admiration. Toward the end of the school year,
the groups become even closer, as
the juniors learn the tricks of the
trade to becoming "perfect" seniors. Eventually, the "Empire" is
handed down to the new group of
classmen who, like their senior
friends, try to appear as the dominant force in the school. So continues this never-ending high
school tradition . ..

televisions, but Macintosh computers. The cunning culprit soon got over his
misery because he discovered the senior student files and began changing names to
better suit his deranged disposition. When Batman and Robin arrived, they found the
office swimming in banners of printer paper, on which the Joker had printed the
changed names. "Holy candy corn cakes, Batman! Look at this!" Robin held up the
paper, and they saw ...

gins, seniors have a lot to
think about. Some of
them will go to college to continue studies while others will
enter the world of work.
Recalling the past three years
of high school, seniors have
many stored experiences that
will last forever. Recollections
of athletic events, the drudgery
of every school day, Homecoming, and Prom remain long after
graduation. This last year
marks a change in the lives of
all seniors who realize that this
ends four years of sharing experiences with friends they may
never see again. Guys and gals
seem more unified, with strong
feelings of togetherness. Newfound maturity helps them realize that they don't have much
time left to be with each other
for in June, the seniors will go
their own separate ways.

HE HEAT. It
melts the snow
away, causes
plants to grow, and
brings a new generation
of animals to life. It also
dries our clothing and
our hair and cooks our
food . Without heat,
many things would be impossible. Most people
can't tolerate the thought
of an ice age in which
there would be no spring
or summer trips to the
hot sands of Florida.
Heat caused by the sun
means summer, tanned
skin, and no school, and
these in turn represent relief to every burned-out,
almost-crazed student
longing for a time to experience non-thought-requiring activities. Towards the end of the
school year, in late May
and early June, a time
T
when the brains of students have reached the
"relief needed" level,
heat also causes a slowdown in academic production. Summer means
a vacation for thought
cells, and the school suddenly fills with sweaty,
zombie-like students.
An immediate remedy
for heat exhaustion is a
cool atmosphere. A few
years ago, this cure was
"attempted." The goal:
keep the building cool;
the method: blocking up
half the windows in the
school. The students still
feel the results: less air
circulation, less sunlight,
and more need to keep
doors open to create a
draft in the class. Of
course, these procedures
brought on growing complaints of noisy hallways,
so the halls were closed,
NO WAY OUT. The sweltering heat is not outside, but inside
the building, causing these students to race for the door.

over-crowded cafeteria,
which, in turn, caused
more gathered heat and
more unrest among students. An additional remedy for noisy halls appeared suddenly over one
summer: the infamous
carpeting. One can only
wonder of what synthetic
fibers that turf consists,
but it certainly has the
capacity to trap heat and
especially humidity. Apparently, the decisions
made many years ago
have not only not solved
the problem, but have
also caused more problems. Overall, the students have been left to
suffer the heat from both
Mother N ature and the
angry faculty (the latter
having few complajnts
about the heat because
the teacher's lounge is
air-conditioned). Niles
North students enjoy the
same comforts as our
teachers, since t heir
school is air conditioned.
So, it seems that West
students are being denied
the privileges the faculty
and Northerners are
granted. Hmmmm. Can
these be causes for revolution? " The needs of the
Westerners vs. the satiated faculty and Northerners." Well, those oppressed may rise up! but maybe when the heat
cools off a bit.

�Turn, turn, turn: To every season there is a sport, too. Whether skateboarding, playing football, or skiing, each activity is topped off with a smile.
t
kiing down a steep,
snow-capped mountain
... picnicking in a local
park . .. basking in the sun's
heat . . . raking crumpled
brown leaves . .. Students enjoy all seasons because each
one provides its own character
and activities. Many students
prefer summer because it
serves as a two and a half
month vacation from school.
Others enjoy the brisk weather
and outdoor sports of winter.
Spring and fall provide a " hap-
py medium" between the
warmest and coldest periods in
the yearly cycle.
Fashion, clothing, and style
also vary as the weather
changes. In the winter, wornout brown leather jackets,
warm furry mittens, and
heavy wool sweaters become
a must. Spring time offers
the opportunity to begin
wearing outrageous hot pink
t-shirts, white cotton pants,
lighter-weight windbreakers,
and docksiders (without
socks, of course!) By the time
summer arrives, skimpy
neon bathing suits, khaki
shorts, and revealing tank
tops prevail. Fall clothing
consists of blue denim jackets, ripped, washed-out
jeans, and long-sleeved plaid
flannel shirts.
No matter what the weather,
sweatshirts always provide an
easy solution to the morning
quandary of what of wear.
Whether the temperature soars
to 90 degrees or takes a dip
toward the zero mark, students
wear colorful sweatshirts.
Some advertise a well-known
college such as Kansas with its
red, yellow, and blue Jayhawk;
others indicate patronage at
the Hard Rock Cafe and Ed
Debevics.
Whatever the season, students enjoy fun activities and a
wide variety of clothing to
"suit" all types of weather.

�o express their abounding cultural interests students
may participate in activities, or they may observe
others performing them. Though many students sing
or play an instrument, most also enjoy listening to tunes on
the radio or watching music videos. They may even spend
an evening at the Civic Opera House to enjoy a musical.
Cultural interest don't always reflect students talents. Sitting in a theater with a bag of popcorn and a Diet Pepsi
provides many people with all the entertainment they need.
For simple amusement, reruns of "M.A.S.H." entertain and
relax many students. When television becomes tiresome, a
quiet evening reading a paperback, playing the Nintendo
Entertainment System, or spending an extravagant evening
at the theater watching "Les Miserables" takes the students
into an imaginative other world . . . When students find
interest in an activity, they discover others who enjoy the
activity and introduce them to many other interest as well.
Some of these interests merely remain enjoyable activities,
while others become increasingly involving, but all relieve
school worries and provide simple pleasure.

Of the years that have passed:
The tears fill up our eyes
Because the time has gone.
We will start a new life,
As now we move on.
We recall freshman year
And that dreadful first day,
Now we've reached the end
We have to go away.
We'll always have memories
Of our years from day one.

�Contemplating her college choices, senior Judy Hartman awaits a meeting with her guidance counselor. Counselors provide an instrumental role in
the selection of colleges and provide stucients with transcripts, applications
and test scores.
Businessmen, attorneys,
... accountants, doctors, ...
engineers, secretaries,
teachers, artists, ... What is
it going to be seniors?
Searching for the answers
along with the appropriate
post high school institutions,
most seniors still seem mystified.
Though NiWeHi offers
various career oriented
classes, as child development, accounting, interior
decorating and economics,
students continue to look at
all available avenues. Different factors influence different individuals. Some go for
the prestige, others for the
money and finally others for
personal happiness and success. Senior ,Janey Yu commented," I want a career that
interests me but at the same
time I want the money and
prestige."
As seniors decide on the
career choices, they must
evaluate their chosen college
for its success in the appropriate field of study they
have chosen. Law bound students consider the prestigious law schools that may
give a head-start for their future careers. Prominent business schools for those inclined in entrepreneurship.
Music and art schools for
those inspired in the arts. On
the job training facilities for
those wanting a quick start
to life. The list continues .. .
And seniors seem more puzzled than before with the
wide variety of opportunities
available.

�Most underclassmen envision senior year as a life .of
fun, parties and no homework. Score one for fun and
parties, but homework involves a different story.
Many underclassmen don't
realize that seniors have to
do homework. Unfortunately, senioritis, the common ·
slump of not doing homework, affects upperclassmen
at various time of the year.
Senioritis prevails as a deadly component of a senior's
life. He must keep his grades
up, especially if he has received acceptance to a college because the college representatives will contact
the student's counselor for
grades. If the grades are not
average or better, the student will receive a warning
from the college; two or three
warnings constitute termination of acceptance. The student then has little chance of
applying to and receiving acceptance from another
school. Even a junior, who
wishes to remain anonymous, says she feels senioritis hitting her early in the
year. So beware senior and
underclassmen - senioritis
may strike anyone, and the
results can be fatal!

When the cafeteria's special scrumptious dishes do not appeal to the delicate taste buds of the average Joe Shmo

other sources of culinary delights to hit
the spot.
"Tom's Place for gyros because
they're the greatest," commented junior
Leyla Arsan. For a small sum of money

Other students prefer fast food
sources located near Niles West such as
Mallo's, McDonald's, Burger King, and
Wendy's. Besides draining the pocket,
these franchises offer a variety of specialties t.o please student appetites. ,Junior Matt Brennan states, "I like
McDonald's because they have good
salads, especially the Chicken-Oriental." Others like these places for the
traditional burgers-fries-coke routine.

Red, yellow, blue, purple,
orange, green walk the halls
because the tie-dye craze has
struck Niles West. Tie-dye
belts, folders, pants, t-shirts,
and even purses abound
throughout the school.
Students have varying
opinions about these exotic
accessories. Junior Jeff Margolin, commented, "I think
the tie-dyes are for other
people, but not for me, they
can have them." Senior
Lynn Pappas explained the
change improved the atmosphere in the school. "I think
that if people wore them
right the new look would be
spectacular." added Rodney
Pintang.
Although many students
wear tie-dyed clothes and accessories, the variety of colors and patterns still allow
individuality to dominate
the halls. If students continue wearing these eye-catching clothes then this fad wiH
live on. If not, this fad will
live up to it's name and
"dye" along with the yo-yo
and hula hoop.

As the year progresses, seniors do not
realize how swiftly the time passes. To
them, their high school days seem endless as time drudges on. However, when
the end of the year nears, students
think fondly and a bit sadly upon the
memories of friends and special moments. For the first time, they must
face the prospect of saying good-bye to
close friends who will be going their
separate ways.
Saying good-bye, though necessary,
often proves to be a very sorrowful experience and never easy. Regardless of
time or circumstances, good-byes are always hard to express and never fail to
sound so final. But good friendships
should last forever, making good-byes
not permanent, but merely temporary
farewells.
While seniors enjoy their remaining
days at Niles West, they feel happiness
at completing this chapter of their lives,
and also a touch of melancholy for the
friends they shall leave behind. Thus, it
is with sadness that the graduating seniors bid each other adieu.

�Athletics, Activities Abound
✓
As soon as the bell rings and classes
end, students find that no matter what
their interest, clubs and sports offer an
abundance of activities. Club membership gives students a chance to show
their talents. From the game of chess to
the game of basketball, everyone can
get involved.
Positive rewards such as sharing experiences and motivating others go
with membership. W,hether putting on
a play or scoring the winning touchdown, as a team, students work together
and achieve their goals. Recalling her
experiences as a cabinet member, sophomore Terri Wawrzyniak explains, "A
chance to get to work with my friends
and to help plan activities, I get a feeling of accomplishme nt when activities
are successful." In addition, active students find that participation helps
them to develop a sense of commit-
ment. According to senior Andy LaLiberty, " In a club you're depended on. If
you play trumpet in the band and don 't
show up, then the entire band is affected. The commitment prepares kids for
life and the job world."
Regardless of the club or sport selected, students develop self-confidence
and achieve greater self-esteem by joining an after school activity.

�A.P. : Added Pressure
Juniors and seniors become bundles
of nerves with dark circles under their
eyes and fatigue visible in their manner.
The two big weeks of AP exams have
arrived all too soon.
The Advanced Placement Program
or AP provides motivated students with
the opportunity to earn college credits
or advanced placement in college for
work done in high school. Students take
a national examination sometime in
May; resulting scores of 3 out of 5 or
higher usually qualify for credit.
Students take AP courses for many
reasons. These courses cover subjects in
greater depth, allowing the students to
learn more. Also, students may save
money and time by earning college
credits.
Though many students often wonder
how they will live through t he two
weeks in May during which AP exams
occur, those who put fourth an effort
and succeed in an AP class are usually
well-prepared and receive a high score.
When they enter college and the benefits come, their hard work finally seems
to have been worthwhile.

Friends Of Amnesty Founded
After months of preparation,
weeks of hanging up posters, and
repeated announcements in the
daily bulletin, the Friends of Amnesty organization finally got off
the ground with a surprisingly
large turnout at its first meeting.
Junior co-founders, Priscilla
Moy and Jacqueline Remillard
became interested in forming the
club after their friends at Niles
North and Lane Tech high schools
had already started local chapters.
"We founded our club to increase
Niles West students' awareness
and participation in a worthy
cause that deals with helping to
free forgotten prisoners of conscience and a better understanding of "our'.' human rights," stated
Moy.
s
Remillard and Moy have _et
three goals for this first year of
Amnesty: to educate the student
body about Amnesty International through the use of VCR presentations, various petitions and appeals, speakers and seminars; to
assist in the release of prisoners of
conscience through letters and petitions; and to establish a firm
foundation for the Niles West
chapter of Amnesty International.

Physical Management Introduced
Due to the number of students at
NiWeHi who have weight problems,
Judi Sloan, Girls' P.E. teacher, and the
P.E. Department, have begun a new
gym class called Physical Management. In order to have success in this
special program, students must change
their lifestyles through learning proper
exercise and eating habits so that when
they lose weight, they can keep it off
forever. To do this, they must first have
the motivation to want to change themselves.
The Physical Management program
began in a school system in Wyoming
and soon spread to every high school in
that state. The high schools then began
teacher workshops to introduce the program to the cou_
ntry. Debbie Rummel, a
teacher at Antioch High School, who
attended the workshop at Montana
State University, introduced the Physical Management program to Illinois,
and after attending Rummel's work-

varsity football player's locker during

members and varsity cheerleaders.
shop, Sloan brought the program to
Niles West.
Eighteen students have enrolled in
Physical Management either because
this class replaces adaptive gym or because they feel that they need to lose
some weight. Alison Presley explains,
" I thought the class would be good for
me because I need to learn how to lose
weight by eating and exercising correctly."
Sloan explains, "If a person really
faces the facts of being overweight, has
tried unsuccessfully to lose weight before, and is willing to put some effort
into an eating and exercise plan, by all
means, take Physical Management."
Actually, students do not have to be
overweight or on crutches to take t his
class; they may also take this class to
learn about good nutrition and proper
exercise techniques.

A student walks down the hall, slowly making his way to class. His mind
still sleeps after the long weekend, he
does not want to be bothered. Suddenly
a group of giggli ng girls descends upon
him. "Want to buy a candy bar?" they
squeal. He pushes by.
"Student salespeople" have taken
over the halls of Niles West. Anytime
students get the munchies, someone
nearby will certainly hawk some type of
delicacy, from chocolate bars to suckers.
In recent years, several organizations
have discovered many new things to
sell. One year, silver and red Niles West
locker mirrors took t he school by storm,
appearing on locker doors throughout
the school. S.A.D.D. sold "thank you"
cards which allowed students to receive
discounts from several local merchants.
Although no one knows what creative
thinkers will decide to sell next, students will surely continued to be bombarded with pl~as of "Buy from me!"

Upperclass People Joy
Anxiously awaiting the privileges that accompany
the prestige of being an upperclassmen, students struggle through their first few years of high school. As an
upperclassmen, besides enjoying the luxury of sitting in
a special section of the cafeteria or throwing pennies at
the helpless little freshmen, they also appreciate certain other pleasures. After reading the variety of answers that juniors and seniors gave when asked about
the best part of being an upperclassmen, underclassmen
should realize that they don't have to study to impress
their friends; rather, they have to study so they can
make 'it to their junior and senior year, and take advantage of the following privileges.

Fit For Life
..
The weight room provides interested
students with a chance to build up their
strength. Junior David Haddon spots
senior Andy Lundsberg at an after
school work-out session.
Grinding, grueling workouts fill
countless hours in sweat-filled rooms,
all in the pursuit of muscles. Every year
both male and female students experiment with weight lifting in an attempt
to develop "rock hard pees" for various
reasons. As senior Richard Dubin explained, " I lessen the chance of receiving injuries while participating in athletics."
Beginning go-getters, perform the
lonely task in a basement with free
weights and a cold bench. To find the
equipment they lack at home, some independent lifters take their quest to
health clubs which offer the advantage
of working out with others to relieve
some of the boredom.
Whether as a necessity for self im-
provement or to attract attention,
lifters relentlessly pursue their goals.
The "weight room addict" enjoys
pumping iron to increase his weight.
The health conscious weight lifter
thinks only of becoming physically fit.
"Mr. Macho" looks for new bulk to
bring in " oohs and aahs," living on
compliments on how good he looks,
while never passing up an opportunity
to flex or wear a tank top.
Although the number of students
committed to weight lifting dwindles
with time, those who stuck with it reap
the rewards and can say, T.G.I.F.
(Thank God I'm Fit.) " Only a special
individual keeps pumping in the pursuit of muscles.

The "11se Ones
"Hey, Freshman!" someone yells. "I'm not
a freshman!" an indignant sophomore replies. As any sophomore can tell you, the
best way to insult him is to call him a freshman. After a whole year of being picked on
they look forward to their new sophomore
status.
Sophomores return to school in the fall
with a feeling of superiority. Their freshman
days now behind them, they feel entitled to
some respect. However, the blow comes the
first week of school when someone calls them
a freshman, and they feel like a little "freshie" all over again. This does not ruin their
year, of course, for they are too busy with the
Mixer, dances and other parties to let this
little comment destroy their egos. Still, being
called a freshman is an annoyance most
sophomores would like to do without. So woe
to the upperclassman that calls a sophomore
a freshman.

Fire Drill - For Safety's
Sake
Heads rising, pencils dropping, eyes opening, doors shutting and the sound of footsteps trudging from the building
and congregating on the grounds, occur only a few times
throughout the year. The sight projects a scene of confusionfriends finding friends, fire vehicles entering the lot, teachers
trying to gain control until finally the bell rings, causing the
unruly body of students and teachers to re-enter the building. This event witnessed by one and all, results from the fire
alarm signaling all occupants to exit the building.
Astonishment, fright and panic would affect most students
and faculty if a fire actually struck. Therefore the fire drills
and instructions posted in each classroom offer a sense of
security as well as a chance for all to prepare for the possibility. Though a benefit for some students (a chance to miss
class) and a nuisance for some teachers, fire drills are a
necessary precaution. According to senior April Grandinetti,
"They're necessary ... We have to be prepared for emergencies."

It's A Fib. It's A Little White Lie. No, It's A FAT Lief
It begins
as a feeling in the depths of
the mind and slowly grows to a temptation. The brairi plays with it a bit, testing elasticity, then waits until t he perfect time has come to test it . When a
situation arises in which one's abi lity to
deceive may be flaunted, the enticement overcomes all veracity, and the
result explodes in a big, F A T lie,
which often grows into a catastrophi c
myth.
Who better at lying than West-goers?
The " implication s of" a lie failing hard ly stand up to the "prospects of" a lie
succeeding; who would pass up a chance
to skip homework for an evening of
NBC sit-com reruns, with the only restriction being to come up with a solid
fib by the next morning? If t h e "Cosby
Show" is on, the fib may be borrowed
from t he Huxtable children, the typical
teenagers, provided that one's teachers
don 't enjoy these programs, too.
With the first excuse, teachers are
bound out of their compassion ate
hearts to pass it off as a blunder, a mere
case of amnesia, or even procrastination. The student is astounded by his
ability to evoke pity in his teacher, yet
vows never to repeat the deception. The
person deceived is th e student, because
he allowed moral weakness to overcome
moral strength, unl eashing a monster of
temptation. Soon after, the FAT lie
grows into a William Perry-sized lie,
and, with all that stuffing, it becomes
impossible to distinguish between
"truth and turkey." Not only will the
lia r's walk become more like a boat ride
in stormy weather, but he'll find tripping over his nose unavoidable .
S ince lyi ng puts too much pressure
on the heart, it seems foo lish to risk
failure of t he cardiovascu lar system,
just to watch "ALF " instead of doing
geometry proofs. Commercials don't offer enough time t o get work done, and
since skipping a few episodes won 't affect semester grades or transcripts, geometry becomes a wiser choice, if not
for entertainme nt, at least for occasion al intellectual stimulation . Besides,
footprints on one's nose really aren't
very attractive.

Those New Locker Locations
"You only go to homeroom once a
day, so why situate lockers near homerooms," reasoned Chief of Security
James Puff. This rationale led to
changes in the assignment of locker locations.
To many students, the new system,
consisting of seniors on the first floor,
juniors on the second floor, and sopho- ·
mores and freshmen on the third floor
caused both concern and controversy. ,
Senior Lynn Pappas commented,
"Most of my classes are on the first .
floor so I don't have to travel as far; it
shows seniors are dominating." However, Sophomore Colin Rothman remarked, "My homeroom is on the sec-
ond floor, and my locker is on the third
floor, so it makes it kind of hard to
carry my books around all morning."
Providing students with the opportunity to socialize with those of the same
grade level and allowing extra room for
more books motivated the change. The
drop in student enrollment also gave
students the opportunity to have their
own lockers.
The old system of locker assignment
by homeroom seems better to some and
worse to others, but when any method
changes, some students usually disagree
with the new way.

Choosing from an assortment of styles,
sophomores select a gem stone for their
rin~. Among the .hj_ghhgh ts of sophomor:e
year is the chance to design and purchase
a class ring.
The Ring Man Cometh
An unknown visitor walks
down the hall with a briefcase and posters in hand. Everyone watches and wonders
as the walls fill with colorful
signs. Sophomore's eyes light
up with excitement upon the
arrival of the Josten's jewelry man.
The Josten's jewelry man
presents his product to interested and confused sophomores. Choosing just the
right style, size, and inscriptions proves to be difficult
decisions. However, the wide
range of ideas in brochures
given to the students make
the choice a lot easier. Students may select decorations
such as horoscopes, sports,
and clubs for their rings. In
addition, names can be inscribed on the outside or inside of their rings. Class rings
may cost a lot but they provide a great way of remembering the school. Perhaps in
t hirty years, while looking at
a school ring, students will
recall their fantastic high
school years once again.

�The Joys Of Sophomore Cabinet
Planning activities for fun
and raising money for prom
took top priority with sophomore cabinet members.
Throughout the year they
sponsored many activities
including the frosh-soph
mixer, nominations for
Homecoming King and
Queen, and sock-hop with a
cop. At the beginning of each
month these sophomores receive a calendar so they re-
main informed.
"Because all members
have given up a great deal of
time, we've been very successful," stated president Elliott Malkin. Everybody
wanted active membership,
and their sponsor Mr. Puff
had provided necessary encouragement, by sacrificing
precious time to help get
things together.
Hard working sophomores
enjoyed their fun filled pursuit, and received the gratifying recognition they deserved, by the commendatory remarks of other students and teachers. Although cabinet members
came across a few problems,
like thinking of ideas for
dances, they always found a
way to solve them.
Huma Qureshi
Sophomores listen intently to the new ideas being proposed during a cabinet meeting.

Getting Behind The Wheel
Although freshmen don't
look forward to the harder
classes and additional homework of sophomore year,
they do like one important
benefit of the second year of
high school. During sophomore year, almost all students turn fifteen, becoming
eligible to take driver's education. In turn, they can get a
driver's license, which seems
to be the key to a whole new
life for former freshmen.
Sophomores cherish their
driver's license because so
many benefits accompany
them. Generally, driving
means freedom from both
students and parents. Happy
parents no longer have to act
as taxi driver's, and happy
students rejoice that parents
no longer know every single
detail of a night's plans.
Driving means the ability to
run to the store alone when
an incredible munchies attack hits. Most importantly,
driving introduces students
to a new social life, and the
whole world seems much
more accessible with many
interesting, yet far away
places now within reach. The
embarrassment of always
getting dropped off everywhere just disappears. Driving proves that the student
has definitely left freshman
year behind, and has become
just plain "cool".
In some ways more important than a charge card, the
plastic driver's license offers
chances for many new experiences, all possible because of1
Driver's Education which
most students consider the
most desirable course in
sophomore year.

A compromising position. Being t he youngest classmen freshmen get
picked on a lot. Perseverance will pay off, though, and by th~ time they are
seniors, the woes of freshman year will have been forgotten.
Freshmen Social Circle
Although years have passed since seniors arrived as freshmen, they still have memories of meeting interesting people
in those first few days. Students quickly discover the great
places high school has to offer where they can meet a variety
of new friends. Freshmen can get to know people just like
themselves at clubs, dances and after-school sports. As years,
pass, students find additional activities that tempt them to
join.
In September, students make friends with people from
various schools. Soon they walk down the long hallways of
West with friends, hand-in-hand, in groups or alone. When
hallways close from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., friends may gather in
the cafeteria or the Oakton Lobby to gossip about things that
happened that day or during the day.
After-school, students meet at games or crowd into the
cafeteria to talk about people they met that day. Some stay
after school until the least possible moment to just find out
about the latest gossip.
Both upperclassmen and underclassmen agree that high
school provides both places and opportunities to meet those
new and interesting people who just may become their best
friends.

�From The Top To The
Bottom
After only a week, I already notice that the power I had
last year has quickly diminished; I no longer, hold the position of "king of the school." Today I walk the long, dark
corridors alone, as a freshman.
I can clearly remember last year when my friends and I
strolled down the hallways. All of the sixth and seventh
graders would part from the middle of the hall and, with a
dreamy gaze in their young eyes, wish that they could be
eighth graders. I remember the good times we had when we
picked on the seventh graders, chasing them down the halls.
One time, a couple of the smarter seventh graders, ran into
one of the ladies' washroom; that gave us a lot a laughs for
·
days to come.
But now the tables are turned. All the seniors and juniors
want to tease and pick on us, even tossing pennies at us.
Yesterday as my friends and I quietly walked down the hall,
a couple of juniors started poking fun at us, calling us "freshies," "little freshies!" This affected us in such a degrading
manner that now I realize all the pain we had inflected on
the poor little seventh graders.
I hope this silly, ridiculous nonsense stops soon and that I
grow up quickly so I can be a senior. Then I will fulfill my
desire to make fun of the new freshmen.
There is no substitute for concentration, and freshman Stanley Matz
blocks out all the noise around him to study for his exam. Though sometimes a bore, study halls allow students a quiet area for doing work.

New Academic Honesty .Policy Implemented
Taking his biology final, Joe Shmoe
suddenly draws a blank on problem
number 15, so he sneaks a peek at Tim
Brain's paper. If the teacher notices, he
does not comment. Joe gets away with
cheating and may continue to cheat
throughout his life.
Situations like the one described
have become a thing of the past, because a joint committee, composed of
students, parents, teachers, and administrators from both North and West
have established a new Academic Honesty Policy. Explaining in much greater
detail than the previous policy exactly
what does and does not constitute
cheating, the policy lists seven examples of the ways to plagiarize, along
with fourteen other violations.
Academic Honesty Committee members from West that worked on the policy include graduate Meena Ravella,
senior Leanne Statland, science teacher
Dottie Fuigel, Spanish teacher Ed Murphy, parents Judy Elmer and Joan Gutterman, principal Donald Ring, and the
committee chairman, John Lorez, director of administration at North.
Classroom policies have already
changed, as many teachers have rewritten tests to ensure that students can not
obtain tests from older friends. Addi-
tionally, the committee has created a
special form for reporting infractions of
the policy.
Optimism shows in the attitude of all
involved. " It gives students who want
to be honest a peg to hang t hat desire on
and something to point to. I feel it will
be very effective," notes Gutterman. A
new era of honesty draws near. The
strict enforcement of t his policy should
guarantee t hat students will be forced
to study harder instead of taking an
easy ride. Learning, after all, exemplifies the purpose of the school system.

�To Study Or Not To
Study?
There are so many to choose from! Freshman Houtan Chaboki searches
for a novel to read during hi·s free time. The amount of books they find in the
library surprise many freshmen whe n t he see it for the first time.
What does a bored student do while sitting in study hall?
Many students study, t he obvious choice, to minimize their
homework load. Others use the time to catch up on sleep lost
from stayi ng up too late to study the night before.
If a student decides he wants to leave the study hall room,
he finds many options from which to choose. The spacious,
air-conditioned library suppl ied with books, magazines, and
newspapers, provides a great place for students to get away
from the crowded , hot study hall. In resource centers, students can get h elp from teachers or make up tests they have
missed. The cafeteria provides a great escape fo r the rebel lious students. After signing out to t he was hroom or locker,
the student sneaks out to the cafeteria, says hi to a friend or
two, and then slyly returns to his study hall within t he five
minute t ime limit.
Of course, the few students who enjoy detention don't
bot her to go to study hall at all, p refer ring to sit in t he
cafeteria or even go out for lunch. T hey may enjoy themselves at t hat moment, but sitting in the hour long detention
later, t hey probably regret their choice.
With all t hese altern atives, students may use study hall
time to catch up on work or just use it to have fun for t he day.

a time for getting set in new

First Day Blues
As the middle of Augusf rolled
around, the thought of returning to
school entered the minds of many students. The freshmen looked forward to
a new beginning in a different school
and an opportunity to meet new people.
The sophomores were relieved to know
that the term "Frosh" no longer applied to them. The juniors finally received the title upperclassmen, while
the seniors reflected on thoughts of
their final year at Niles West.
On August 22 and 23 a special orientation provided freshmen with a firsthand look at the school and its curriculum. The rest of the school realized that
the school year was to begin when they
received their new schedules and notices to pick up their books.
When students arrived at school on
the first day, the talk was of tans, summer vacations and parties. Some stu-
dents had difficulty finding their
classes. Some freshmen even missed the
first 10 minutes of homeroom while
purchasing their very own elevator
pass. By the end of the first day students knew that the school year had
really begun when their teachers ended
their classes by saying, "The homework
for tonight ... " You know the rest.

They left the room
stunned by the unbelievable
discussion on "Bio Medical
Ethics" they had just heard
at Seminars for Scholars, a
program which presents discussions on this and other
complex and sensitive issues.
Once a month, chosen seniors break away from their
hectic schedule to participate in group lectures on topics such as the Politics of
Television, the American Penal System, and the Future
of Nuclear Energy.
The Seminars for Scholars
program encourages students
to take action on challenging
issues. Participants confront
speakers, who are leaders in
their fields, and also debate
with fellow seniors. The exciting presentations, directed
by Gerald Boevers and Tom
McMahon, evoke many
questions and heighten concern about the issues presented. By participating in
Seminars for Scholars, students receive a deeper understanding of the issues debated. Senior Mikhail Lyubansky commented," The
Seminars for Scholars program gives us a chance to
learn about real-life problems in today's world, problems that are not discussed
in a regular classroom."

�Decisions, DecisionsCounselors To The
Rescue
Because of the great variety of classes
to choose from, students often find
making their course selections difficult.
Every spring, students meet with
their counselors, who play an important part in helping students choose
these classes. This process takes a lot of
careful thought on behalf of both the
student and the counselor in order to
build schedules that meet both graduation requirements and prerequisites
for college. "Our counselors make sure
t hat we are taking the necessary requirements for that year, but it is really
up to us to plan what we will be taking
in the future," explains junior Laura
Bourikas.
Freshmen may have a hard time
electing courses for their first year because of unfamiliarity with the system
and the many requirements. Sophomores and juniors find less complication in making out their schedules because they know what to expect and can
construct their schedules around required courses, such as U.S. History,
Health, and Consumer Education.
Although students find the selection
of courses a long and tedious process,
they soon discover that counselors act
as friends in helping them make the
right choices!

�Excuses, Excuses
Whimpering, whinning, and pleading, student excuses become more of a
plea for forgiveness than an actual admission of forgetfulness. Every year,
students come up with crazy excuses to
give to their teachers, who usually trust
the most inexperienced liars of all ...
the freshmen. The following students
describe their best excuses:
"I was lost." - Steve Michaels
"I asked for directions and
some senior sent me in the
wrong direction." - Miguel Ramirez
"I couldn't open my locker because I forgot my combination." - Ryan Mollet
"My mom ran out of diapers
and used my homework as a
substitute." - Erik Bauer
On the receiving end, teachers have
heard many bizarre excuses:
"My father is an air traffic controller and he mistakenly sent the
planes in the wrong direction. In
the process, the plane crashed
into our home and seven other
houses, killing three families." Chris Fontana, Spanish.
"I have my homework on my
computer disk but the disk won't
work in the computers here." Larry Broy, Physics.
"My cat threw up on it." - Geri
Nash, English.
As the freshmen become sophomores,
their devious plots fail because they realize that teachers put more emphasis
on honesty than creativity.

The Big Rush
After weeks of putting off
homework assignments and
not studying for tests, students, once again, face the
big rush at the end of the
marking period. In the 6th
week, students find themselves under more pressure
than at any other time in the
grading period. Not only do
students have to get caught
up, but they also must handle the extra work that
teachers try to fit in.
Soon, time usually wasted
talking with friends in the
cafeteria turns into time
spent more wisely in the library. Students also talk less
on the phone and watch less
television during that last
week because of the increased study time needed to
achieve good grades.
Wise students can avoid
all the unnecessary hassle
and pressure by preparing
themselves earlier. Remembering that marking periods
consist of six weeks rather
than one week should help
students to avoid the sixth
week rush. Many students go
through the big rush not realizing that the same grade
could be achieved in an easier, less stressful way - by
studying from week one!

�Accomplishm ents Equal Awards!!
In an attempt to explain a new concept of mathematics to students, Dr. Korte sets up an example
on the board. Class lectures usually prove to be an
effective method of learning. '
The cool, dark room slowly filled
with teachers, students, and parents.
People arrived through every possible
entrance, and soon, the previously empty room lacked spacet: This event might
have aroused curiosity in uniformed bystanders, but for those in attendance,
this was a very important and rewarding night when all their scholastic accomplishments for that entire year
would be acknowledged and commended - Awards Night!
The program began with the Pledge
of Allegiance, and then Mr. Geismann,
the master of ceremonies, announced
the Faculty Retirement Awards, many
other faculty awards, and the scholarship awards for the seniors and juniors.
As the night progressed, Edward
Hirsh, the distinguished alumnus,
talked briefly about his experiences at
Niles West before he became a recognized poet. The sophomores were next
to ascend the stage of the auditorium
and receive their scholarship awards.
Last, but not least, the nervously waiting freshmen finally made their way
forward to their first award ceremony,
hoping they would receive more awards
in the years to come.
The attention of the audience was recaptured by a display of colossal slides
of students, while Expressions sang, accompanied by members of the orchestra. The same confusion that started
the program, ended it as crowds of people, big and small, exited the auditorium and entered the reception in the
cafeteria. Now, however, the recently
acquired plaques, pins, and ribbons
were the cause for the celebration.

Concentrating intensely, this

Room 219, where Ronald

illustrate a point, a Psychology student might locate an
unsuspecting "freshperson,"
as Albiani would refer to the
chosen representative of the
class of '91, and request that
the victim participate in an

example, tried to memorize
the names of everyone in the
class in order to illustrate
the learning process. Giving
his opinion of this and simi

Frank Brodsky said, "They
were very entertaining because they broke up the monotony of a normal class period. In doing these experiments, Albiani made learning fun."

the semester when students

Screeching tires and honking horns

and juniors to obtain their driver's licenses.
The instruction includes three different areas-classroom, range driving, and

the teacher provides filmstrips of driving techniques and teaches the causes
of accidents, methods of preventing
them, and the techniques of good, safe
driving. Range instruction allows the
student to try to master correct techniques and helps make the student less
afraid of driving. At the beginning of
behind the wheel instruction, a student
drives on streets with little traffic.
Eventually, the student drives to the

In addition to the acting process, students also learn how

Students part1c1pating in
this class are used to demonstrations of this type as a
normal part of their classroom curriculu m. Physics,
open mostly to juniors and
sen iors, provides students
with the chance to discover
the magic of motion. The
course covers a variety of
subjects on force, gravity,
motion, and other matters of
physical science. Labs occur
often, giving students some
hands-on experience with
the principles they learn
about in lectures and textbooks.
If a student loves cats and
bees, however, he should
think carefully about attendin g this class. Cruelty to and
punishment of cats and bees
are commonly mentioned in
lectures. Students should
also be warned about t he
"shotgun quiz". This is a
principle advocated by many
teachers, but few quite as originally as Dennis Hoeppner,
who provides the shotgun as
well as the quiz.
Many students describe
the class as "entertaining" or
"exciting". ,J unior ,Jean Lee
states, "It's kind of hard, but
we learn a lot." The class attracts many students, as several honors and regular
c lasses occur at various
mods throughout the day.
For students interested in
learning about the physical
world, or those who enjoy
the experience of labs (or
simply dislike cats and bees),
the Phys ics room is the place

Students gaze in awe as
medical equipment fills the

some students ponder t he
presence of such apparatus,
NHS members provide a
clear answer. The annual
blood drive, sponsored by
the National Honor Society,
supplies blood to various
hospi ta ls through LifeSource which stores the
blood and distributes it as
needed.
A student must be at least
seventeen years of age, weigh
110 pounds or more, and be
in good health to donate
blood. A signed parental permission form must be submitted, as well. To encourage
students and faculty members to give blood, NHS
members visit homerooms,
post signs, and make announcements during home-
room. Vincent Fang and
Frank Brodsky took turns
dressing up as Buford the
Bloodhound and roaming
t he cafeteria during lunch
modes to recruit potential
donors. NHS members set up
tables with cookies and juice
to make d onating more
pleasant. After NHS members put so much effort into
promoting the event, t hey
had a nice surprise. Many
students and faculty decided
to donate at the last minute,
so a total of ninety pints was
collected.
Although donating blood
hurts a little, t here is a good
feeling in knowing t hat it
will help others. As NHS
member Gail Gutterman
said, "Giving blood helps humanity, and is therefore,
worthwhile."

�---------------------------------------------------
"Will you marry me?" John Barba implores Wendy Doyle in a humorous
song during the play Spoon River Anthology. The characters took on various
roles in order to enact the pr<!duction.
For one weekend, the dead
returned to life to tell their
stories to interested viewers
of ~he spring production,
"Spoon River Anthology," a
cluster of epitaphs based on
the actual lives of people
that had lived in Petersburg,
Illinois.
Directed by English teacher James Batts, the cast of
twelve handled over 50 parts,
with each cast member taking five or six different roles.
The actors included Katy
Born, Ann Fisher, Amy
Flack, Paul Katz, Larry
Mills, Arthur Tiersky, David
Lieb, Kevin Steele, Karen
Guthrie, Kristin Hurt and
Yuri Rutman. In addition
John Barba, Wendy Doyle,
Paul Katz, and Pascale
Trouillot handled singing
parts for all three evening
performances.
Lack of a definite plot
made this show a challenge
to perform. Actors changed
character with as little as two
or three minutes to establish
themselves in the new role.
Director Batts expressed
great pleasure in the cast's
hard work, saying, "The
characterization went much
deeper than I expected."
Both cast and crew delighted
in the final product of their
hard work and anticipate an
equally successful show next
year.

"May I have this dance?" Byong

After a bit of dancing and socializing, many couples spend a dazzling
night on the town having a pleasant

IT CAME DOWN TO
ONE NIGHT. Whatever was
to be said had to be said that
night or be left untold. Mystery and intrigue filled the
air, as the sky deepened its
blue color and shone brightly
the light from its many stars.
The lake moved slowly to
the rhythm of the evening,
ebbing and swishing the tide
toward the shore. Lake
Shore Drive glowed from the
light of the street lamps,
meeting the Magnificent
Mile at the formidable Drake
Hotel. At another downtown
hotel, hundreds of teenagers
gathered to enjoy a special
evening . . .
The Knickerbocker Hotel
set the scene for the Class of
1988's Prom, the "Bon Voyage" party thrown by the
junior class. The room ws arranged in a spectacular assortment of round tables,
bright decorations, and a color-lit, glass dance floor. Hors
d'ouvres covered buffet tables, the band warmed-up,
and everything stood ready
for the guests to arrive and
liven the atmosphere. When
they did arrive, the room
shook with excitement. Senior Heather McCulloh commented, "Being able to see
everyone dressed-up and the
~()r ~11t
atmosphere and the music
made it very special, and it
was a nice chance to say
good-bye to the graduates."
On the dance floor, students enjoyed swinging and
bopping to oldies and the latest hits and slowly swaying
to romantic melodies with
their dates. Prom King and
Queen were not something
the Class of '88 was concerned with. They all simply
enjoyed the evening, but for
the sake of tradition, the
most impressive couple, Dr.
Ring and his wife, were secretly crowned Honorary
Prom King and Queen by
Mindy Grossberg and Megan
Goldish. Dr. Ring commented on the honor, saying it
was a pleasant surprise.
When the evening slowly
gave way to the morning
hours, Prom '88 passed and
became another wonderful
memory of the students at
NiWeHi. Many of the students took advantage of the
evening to do special things
with friends and dates, such
as taking carriage rides or
walks on the beach, extending Prom Night to a weekend. No moment was left uncherished ...

�The red and white trio of Joy
Grossberg, John Barba, and Michelle Dayan, sing "Just For a Moment" at the graduation ceremony.
Singing was just one of the number
of performances given to bid the
seniors farewell.
On behalf of the graduating class, valedictorian Fernando Fenn talks of
past accomplishments and future goals in his inspirational speech. It is a
time to remember the happy memories of high school, and a time to look
happily upon the future with anticipation.
In the proudest moment of her life, graduate Bernadeth Dangulian
smiles and accepts her diploma from Dr. Stein. Graduation Day is the
pinnacle of a student's high school years.
All good things must come
to an end, and with this in
mind the class of '88 said a
long awaited good-bye to
their four years at NiWeHi
and a bright hello to their
futures. On a balmy, Sunday
afternoon in a bleacher-filled
Mike Basrak Stadium, parents and friends looked on at
the sea of smiling faces
dressed in red and white.
Seniors sat in anticipation of
receiving their diplomas and
breaking their ties to Niles
West forever. Many look forward to vacations, college, or
whatever they choose to pursue. They listened intently

words of encouragement and
inspiration to his classmates.
It is at this time, sadly,
that friends must say goodbye to their fellow peers and
friends knowing they will
soon embark on their separate paths. Others breathe a
sigh of relief that this very
day they have anticipated
the entire year finally arrives. The crowd was entertained by the sweet words of
"Just for a Moment", sung
by Joy Grossberg, John
Barba, and Michelle Dayan.
The lyrics seemed so perfectly appropriate for this momentous occasion.
Ali Kwon
The joy of sharing special moments with friends, reflected in the embrace
of these graduates, filled the spirits of all the graduates, as they realized

freedom from high school. '

Dr. Ring praises the accomplishments of the graduating class, and with a

successful. The beautiful weather reflected his wish, as the graduation ceremony was able to be held on Basrack Field, in the presence of the proud

Over 300 representatives
from other schools come to
visit on College Night, giving
students time to consider future plans and aspirations,
and allowing them a cursory
glance at the various schools
in attendance. Some students choose to speak with
many institutions extracting
bits of information from
each, while others key in on a
few possibilities which might
pique their interests. In either case, however, students
formulate their own ideas

about the right school for
their educational needs.
By attending College
Night, students hope to examine the many opportunities available and to discover
which school best fits their
qualifications., Life only begins after high school, so students must prepare themselves as best they can for
what lies ahead. Choosing a
college is often the first major decision a student has to
make, and College Night
helps to alleviate some of the
uncertainty and indecision
students may face concerning their futures.

Besides classroom acquaintances, parents mingled with each other, with

In the spirit of the holiday
season, Senior Cabinet gave
their annual Christmas party
for less fortunate children at
a day care center. The party
took place at the Sheridan
Day Care Center, a part of
the Jane Addams Center in
Chicago where most of the
kids are poor and Spanish
speaking.
All of Senior Cabinet and
40 three and four year olds
were present. The cabinet
bought each child a gift and
the party included games
and prizes. The kids wore
name tags and were also
treated with cookies and apple juice. Even Santa Claus
showed up to join in on the
festivities. Senior Eric Orsic
dressed up as Santa and
asked all the kids if they've
been good and what they
wanted for Christmas. "It
went real well. The best
thing about it was when Eric
came out as Santa Claus,"
said Cabinet President Rich
Dubin, "The kids' mouths
dropped. It was such a delight to see them; they were
so excited."
The group of seniors, led
by sponsor Sherri Owens left
school at 1:40 in the afternoon to transport all the supplies to the center. The party
started with different games
like Pin the Nose on Rudolph, Santa's Buckets and
Rudolph, Rudolph, Santa.
The children also sang
Christmas carols in Spanish
and English. Senior Mindy
Grossberg then read them a
story. At the end of th!l party
Santa showed up. The celebration lasted two hours.
Cabinet treasurer Scott Toban concluded, "It was the
most fun they've had in a
real long time. They were
practically crying when we
had to go."

moment that began in the early fifties,
but he was affected tremendously by it
and by the life and pursuits of Dr. King.
Though Mr. Ewing did not speak directly about King's life, he described his
own life's experiences. Through such
tales, Ewing not only captured the audience's attention, but also related
174
King Assembly
Martin Luther King's influences on his
life.
Russ Ewing worked hard over the
years to attain his position, and relied
very much upon himself to succeed, using his natural ability and desire to help
people and report honest news. His valiant efforts to coax would-be suicide
victims and the crime suspects to listen
to his advice, impressed upon the audience his sense of humanity and sympathy for living things, two trait which
reflect Dr. King's influence on Ewing's
life.
The most dominant characteristic
Russ Ewing impressed upon the audience came in the form of his civility and
patience in an appeal to the students.
Ewing rightfully boasted that had never smoked, drunk alcohol, or experimented with drugs, and challenged the
audience to be patient and seek "natural" highs, though he gave an example
of a material high which some observers
did not agree with. Senior Frank Kim
observed, "It was more like a sermon
because it fired me up." Though most
people believed Ewing did not adequately discuss King's life, they enjoyed
the assembly; Jason Burk went so far as
to say that he hadn't seen a better assembly in his four years at West, especially because of the way Ewing was
able to handle the tough Niles West
crowd.
Perhaps that is the greatest influence
Dr. King had on Ewing's life, his moving speeches. Ew,ing's tales were not of
the horrors of a movement, but rather
the result of his heeding the consequences of such horrors and doing everything possible to keep himself and
others out of those situations. Russ Ewing is a strong, sensitive human being,
one of many affected by the life of Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr.

From Wednesday, March
1 to Saturday, March 4 the
cast displayed their talents
by performing on a stage bedecked with photographs of
50's pop stars including Elvis
Presley, Buddy Holly, and
Marilyn Monroe. But, it
wasn't just the awesome seenery that captivated the audience. The excellent performances of the actors brought
them several rounds of applause.
The show opens with the
stars Danny (Tim Queen)
and S an d y ( M e 1in d a

their past summer together
in the song, "Summer
Nights." As the play continues Danny and Sandy's relationship dwindles as he goes
to prom with another girl
and she sits home singing
"It's Raining on Prom
Night." Gradually the two
realize their differences and
work to get back together
ending the play on the high
note of "We go together."
Because of the talent of so
many students, director
Robert Johnson decided to
provide a double cast for
many of the characters. One
cast performed on Wednesday and Friday, and the other on Thursday and Saturday. Johnson stated, "Working with a double cast is
much more difficult than a
single one. It's twice the
work, but it gives more people an opportunity to participate. Each performance is
different because each person developed his own character for the part."
Grease had one of the biggest advanced sales in the
theater history. Both Friday
and Saturday nights were almost sold out before the publie got a chance to buy them.

time of the year, roles
changed as ladies took the
initiative of making, and
paying for, a date. Gentlemen finally experienced the
nervous feeling of waiting
and wondering if their favorite girls would ask the big
question, "Would you like to
go to Turnabout?"
Beginning at 8:00 pm on
Saturday, March 11, the various tunes of DJs A to Z
rocked the crowd. Music
ranged from upbeat dance
tunes to the sounds of Guns

slow songs to make the night
complete. Couples anxiously

Dedication to a sport often determines the success or failure of a team. Despite the cold
weather, Nancy Penn gives it her all.
It was a year of firsts for the girls
varsity tennis team. In fact, about the
only first they didn't accomplish was
finishing first in the Central Suburban
League.
This year's squad was the first to
compete at the varsity level in five
years and they got off to a bang-bang
start, beating crosstown rival Niles
North 5-2 in their first meet of the
season. They maintained a near .500
clip the rest of the way, ending the
season at 5-6, fourth in the conference.
The team did not have a set starting
lineup but sophomore Yvette Gatilao,
senior Nancy Penn, junior Mara
Okmin , and freshman Terri
Richardson usually played singles.
A variety of techniques must frequently be used
to defeat the opponents. These techniques, along Freshman Vicki Karkazis and Gail
with proper form, are taught to players at daily Chung, juniors Lori Utanoff and Masha
Alexander, and junior Daphne
practices.
Mazarakis and freshman Rosette
Cordero usually manned the three doubles slots.
First year head coach Bob Farrington
was happy with the girls' season, commending their attitude and conditioning, and the players were also pleased
with their new coach. "I think the fact
that he (Farrington) is a professional
player really helped the team," said
Alexander.
The first season is over but, with the
exception of Penn, the entire starting
lineup will return next year and their
main goal will be to accomplish the one
first that eluded this year's team- a first
place finish in the conference.

�Sectional Success!
A Sure Thing
Up five games to four, in
the third and final set, with
the score against them, loveforty, the members of boys
tennis teampower back to
score points-15-40, 30-40,
deuce- and finally they win
the game on a service ace.
Such climactic wins spark
teams to aggressively compete and assure a winning
season.
Unfortunately, the spark
did not ignite and explode
for the NiWeHi boys tennis
team. Though they practiced
rigorously, under the eyes of
coaches Mitropolis and
Gralewski, in individual
competition, the boys did not
fare well, losing most of their
matches. But with the experience they gained and the
prospect of returning members, the team is prepared to
fight back and assure a winning season in the future.
On the bright side, there
was the emergence of the
boys doubles team consisting
of 1988 graduate Rohit Patel
and senior Eric Orsic. With
dedication, hard work, poise,
and previous experience, the
two worked themselves into
the sectionals. There the
team captured fourth place
and received medals for
their outstanding accomplishment. Team member
Eric Orsic commented on
their victory, "The sectionals were the highlight to a
season that was overall
rather disappointing. Our individual efforts paid off, but
the team as a whole next
season is looking for more."
The season winded down
with an overall unimpressive record, but each individual learned from their mistakes and gained experience
with each ball they hit.

�On Your Mark,

,.!.,SPLASH\! /
After a summer of hot and
humid record breaking temperature days where most
people spent their time at
the lake or a pool, some students still could not resist
the temptation of plunging
into the depths of water
upon returning to school in
early September. Such was
the case with the girls' swim
team who sought to bask in
glory as the number one
"Splashers" in the area.
Despite a decrease in team
members, the squad had
high hopes, talent and goals
to fulfill. Under the leadership of Coach Jodi Nebbie,
the girls set around to accomplish their task. Long
hours of practice to perfect
the technique of the butterfly, breast stroke, back stroke
and freestyle was the first
necessary step. After that,
team spirit and enthusiasm
carried the team. As senior
Miki Vucic commented,
"Our main goal was to improve our times. Everyone
was enthusiastic and sup-
portive of reaching this
goal."
In competition, the team
had a disappointing season
with an overall record of 112. However the 200 individual medley relay team consisting of Ayumi Koyama,
Miki Vucic, Patty Tzortzis
and Ramona Giderof made it
to the sectionals where they
placed twelfth out of seventeen schools.
After a long hard season,
many members spoke positively of the excitement of
competition and team spirit.
Senior member, Patty Tzortzis summed up the season by
commenting, "The season
went well considering the
few members. Each individual strived for their personal
best and cheered and offered
encouragement to support
fellow members." With the
season complete and fond
memories stored away, the
thoughts of the coach and returning members are upon
next season.

more uflople came out for the
team. Next season, with Brian
(Moreth) and Oscar (Palacios)
returning with more experience
the team will have a strong
foundation and be more competitive.''
With another chapter closed
for the boys cross country team,
returning team members wait
for the beginning of the next
chapter, one they hope that will
be brighter and lead to a first in
their conference.

Wins Title
Conference Champs
Improving in performance
and growing in size each
year, the girls' track team
started off a successful season by winning the title of
1988 Conference Champs.
This talented team consists of many star runners
such as captains Gail Dennis
and Sarah Kim, graduate
Staci Saitta; seniors Debbie
Pozdol, Halina Orawiec and
Peggy Campbell; as well as
junior Holly Kahn and sophomores Shayla Pemble,
Elissa LeBoy, and Lisa Williams. Each day the team
members practice long and
tedious hours to achieve perfection in events such as
sprints, relay, distance running, long jumps, high jump,
and shot put. "Practice is
needed to reach your goals
and to become the best you
can be," stated Elissa LeBoy.
Coach Jean Armour gives
the team much moral support and helps them fulfill
their potential while staying
free of injuries. Luckily, the
team ended the season with a
record of 9-0 and without
any serious injuries.

A Season Of Ups 'N' Downs
Strength, agility, and stamina name
just a few skills the girls' Varsity Soccer
Team acquired under the guidance of
Captains Kristi Lall and Dawn Jacobs,
and Head Coach Joe Brennan. The girls
practiced daily from 3-5, drilling,
scrimmaging and jogging, in preparation for their weekend bouts. One of the
six participating seniors, Lisa Schapira,
observed, "It was a season of ups and
downs. At the beginning we had quite a
winning streak. Later on in the season,
we played better teams. We also played
better soccer though the score didn't
always show it. All in all, I think our
team worked together well, and I have
high hopes for next year's.. team."
The defense, feared by opponents
throughout the conference, consisted of
all-conference Sundy Thompson, Wendy Martin, Sue Rubenstein, Chris Millewski, and Julie Hedrich. Wendy Martin even scored a goal from mid-field
leading the team to a one-point victory.
However, the team's main scoring came
from all-conference Dawn Jacobs, Karin Janessa, Barb Noesen, and Kristi
Lall.
Experience, the best teacher, played
a major role in contributing to the success of the team. The majority of seniors, who dominated the team, received
special recognition for playing on a variety team while maintaining a high
grade point average. The teams ability
vastly improved due to the cooperation
and dedication of the players, allowing
them to compete on the same level as
teams they had previously lost to. Allconference goalie Bea Revlins stated,
"Although we lost to Evanston, we
played the best soccer we were capable
of playing. Challenging such a well-respected team and being considered a
threat, was a major accomplishment.
All our hours of practice really paid
off."

�Coach And Crowd
Go Wild
Over Girls JV Soccer
As the Girls' JV Soccer
team scored another goal,
the crowd and head coach
Peter Zorn went wild. Coach
Zorn and the Girls' JV Soccer team had a very successful season of 10 wins, 5
losses, and 2 ties due to the
team continuity achieved
during the season. According
to senior Jane Martinez,
"Because the JV Soccer team
was so close knit, we cooperated well with one another
during the games which
helped to strengthen our performance during the season."
The experience of the juniors
helped to develop the soccer
skills of the freshmen and
sophomores. Sophomore Agnes Danguilan stated, "All of
the hard work and dedication finally paid off." The
Girls' JV soccer team's payoff was a second place conference showing.

Working hard to earn a winning reputation, the Boys Varsity Soccer team,
under the remarkable coaching of Joe
Brennan, ended the season with an
impressive record of nine wins, eleven
losses, and one tie. This record proves
that this year's team has worked hard
to overcome previous poor seasons. Experience and dedication contributed to
the success of the varsity team, allowing four players, Tom Denic, Andreas
Harris, Lambros Kalamaris, and Owen
Masterton, to receive the honor of allconference. With help from returning
starter Andreas Limber, Tassos Gianak a k o s, Urik Halliday, Mik-
hail Lyubansky, Jim Valavanis an Gus

season just under .500, my co-captain
Lambros Kalamaris and I still think it
was a great season. Our record, though
it's good, does not justice to the talent
on our team." A strong defense and an
effective offense helped the Boys Varsity Soccer team achieve a record that
both they and the school can be proud
of.

�Shoo ting For
Thei r Goal s
With eyes set upon the goal, the junior varsity team concentrates on a new
strategy to defeat their opponents. Soccer, like many others sports, depends
on teamwork.
With two goals in their
minds, the freshman and
sophomore soccer teams attacked their respective seasons. The first goal, to whip
their opponents, they hoped
would lead to the fulfillment
of their second goal, a goal
that would bring the title,
"conference champs," to the
Indians.
The freshman team
worked hard under the leadership of Coach Zorn. Their
long hours of practice and
their team concept enabled
them to reach the goals they
strived for. With the many
dedicated players, including
team leaders Flavio Rocha
and Stratios Kalamaris they
ended the season with a re-
cord of 8-3-2, bringing home
the conference trophy.
As they watched the freshmen defeat their opponents,
the sophomore team ,
coached by James Sweeney,
hoped for the same results.
With a year of experience behind them, they attacked
each game and were aetermined to win. However, they
fell short of their goal, ending the season with a hard
fought third place conference.
Gaining experience each
day, the members of the
sophomore and freshman
soccer teams prepared for
the future star Indians at the
varsity level.

�A Bittersweet Season
As the buzzer sounded on
October 28, the football season came to a bitter sweet finale. The Waukegan Raiders
had routed the Indians 27-7,
robbing them of their first
winning season in years, not
to mention a Homecoming
victory. However, the season
still had many highlights.
Practice was one aspect
that made the Indians successful. During practice on
the day prior to a game, players referred to as "special
teams" rehearsed kickoffs
and kickoff returns. As part
of the preparation, players
received awards for the previous week's game. In addition, Head Coach Bill Richardson helped to arouse team
spirit and participation by
discussing last year's game
against the same opponent.
On the night preceeding a
game, the players met for a
strength building and morale
boosting diner at a team
member's house.
Pointing out his views of
the team. senior member
Mark Argetsinger remarked,
"We had one of the best
backfields in the league, and
a great offensive line to go
with it." The offense banged
out at least 250 yards a game.
Senior Dean Klemenz rambled for 937 yards on one
hundred and sixty-five carries in the year. At the same
time, Tim Queen threw 104
passes for a total of 689
yards. Offensive attack was
led by seniors Mark Argetsinger, Dean Klemenz, Tim
Queen, and Paul Schramm.
"Our defense rated among
the top teams in the Central
Suburban League North,"
commented senior Rob Mandell.
Because of the superb
coaching of Bill Richardson
and the all-conference plays
of Apostolou, Klemenz,
O'Brien, Queen, Schramm,
and Youstra, the football
team achieved a very impressive season, going 2-2 in conference play and 4-5 overall.
Coach Richardson
summed it up best when he
said, "I hope that the underclassmen will carry on the
winning ways established by
the varsity football team."

Football
The word "underclassmen" usually evokes
images of new beginnings,
and a time for mental and
physical development. This
traditional description also
fits the Freshman and Sophomore Football teams.
Due to the large turnout of
over fifty freshman football
players, coaches Steve Ramseyer, Ron Gralewski, and
Elmer Erby had their hands
full of finding and developing so much crude talent.
Freshman players required
many hours of preparation
to catch up with the more
experienced teams of other
schools. The coaches divided
the group into the "A" and
"B" teams, with separate
schedules. The "A" team
ended up with a record of
one win, one tie, and six
218
Freshman/ Sophomore Football
losses. Although the less successful "B" team had no
wins, the season helped develop their potential.
The Sophomore Football
team achieved three victories and four losses for the
season. Besides getting a
taste of the game, sophomores learned to enjoy the
competition and comaraderie of high school ,football.
These sophomores will enter
junior year as welcome additions.
The combination of new
talent and hard work rn the
underclass level makes the
future look promising for

�Golfers Go
For The

Driving, chipping, putting,
. . . These actions became
part of a daily routine for
many members of the golf
team. Beginning their season on a positive note, golfers won their first match,
and ended with a dual meet
record of 3-8. The varsity ·
team consisting of seniors, as
well as several underclassmen, showed great improvement from past seasons.
As the last few weeks of
the season approached, Indian golfers really began to
show more of their outstanding talents. They shocked
fans by placing fourth in the
conference meet, and sixth
in the 14 team regional.
Other accomplishments
also added to the golfers' successful season. Seniors Jeff
Goby and Nick Stratigakes
advanced to the IHSA state
tournament as well. Head
coach George Galla commented, "I am really pleased
with the performance of the
team this season because the
players worked hard."
At the close of the season,
the hard work and dedication put in by golfers became
evident in their results.
Driving, chipping, and putting led them to success!

West Meets West
The eyes of the entire state were
focused on girls basketball and Niles
West, when the Indians hosted Maine
West in the last regular-season game
of the year.
The attention was actually on Maine
West, which had a chance to tie the
state consecutive win record with a
victory over Niles West.
The game was supposed to be a
blow out. The Warriors were defending
state champions and entered the contest with a 62 game winning streak. In
addition, they had already beaten the
Indians by 40 points earlier in the season.
The second time around, the results
were the same. Maine West, ranked by
U.S.A. Today as the top girls team in the
country, won their 63rd game, trying
the record set by Peoria Richwoods in
1984.
While the results were the same, The
margin of victory was not. The lady
cagers hung in the game, refusing to
allow the Warriors to pull away, At the
start of the fourth quarter, they were
down only eight points, after actually
outscoring Maine West 22-15 in the
third quarter, Maine West went on to
win the game 77-59, but it was still a
victory of sorts for the Indians.
For one thing, the players could console themselves with the knowledge
222
Girls Varsity Basketball
that no team has beaten Maine West
since, who else but Niles West, accomplished the feat three years ago.
Then, there is the obvious improvement the team has made since their
first meeting with Maine West, as demonstrated by the 22 point difference in
the margins of victory.
In addition, the team can always
remember their 3rd quarter performance, knowing that, for at least one
quarter, they had outscored the best
team in the country.
The leader of the third quarter rally
was a senior point guard Heather Donlon. Donlon, the team's top outside
shooter and second leading scorer,
scored 18 of the team's 22 points in the
quarter. Sixteen of those points, which
included four straight three-pointers,
came consecutively. Donlon finished
the game with 29 points.
The Indians were not, however, a
one man, uh - girl, team. The starting
line-up featured three seniors, all consistent scorers. In addition to Donlon,
Sandy Stergios and forward Debbie
Pozdol, the team's leading scorer, averaged in double figures. The rest of
the line-up included promising freshman Heather McKenna and junior
Helen Ress.
In a match against Deerfield, team member
Heather McKenna takes a shot at the buzzer. The
team employed a variety of offenses and defenses
to fool their opponen~.

Even though the Junior

their cooperativeness and

indicates a significant improvement in skills and understanding of the game.
They must continue to improve their work habits to be
competitive."
Players whose improvement helped the team included leading rebounder

Klebba also believes that

games because of their competitiveness, describing the
high point of the season as a
41-37 overtime win over
Waukegan East avenging an
easier loss.
Klebba concluded, "This

�Cagers Improve
During Season
With perfect aim, junior Ali ' Le
shoots for the basket from outside
Nikolakakis was a major force that
opponents had to fac.
Like a heavy-weight boxer
who had his opponent on the
ropes in the early rounds but
just couldn't get the knockout punch in, the Niles West
boys basketball team had
many first half leads, during
the first half of the season,
only to lose the game by a
point or two in the fourth
quarter.
During the second half of
the season (starting with
Pontiac Tournament), however, the team turned it
around winning the games
they felt they should win.
No magical potion or strategy changed the team's losing ways. According to senior forward John Lally, the
team had been playing well
enough to win but was just
unable to get the knockout
in the first part of the sea-
What then put the pop in
the Indian's punch? Opinions vary, but the overwhelming response from
team members was that during the Pontiac Tournament,
in which 'the team won two
of the four games played, the
players gained the confidence they needed to win the
close games.
In addition, the Pontiac
Tournament also saw the
emergence of 6-4 senior David Miller as an important
contributor off the bench.
Before the tournament.
Miller was riding the bench,
getting virtually no playing
time. At Pontiac he got the
chance to play, and has been
the first big man off the
bench ever since.
While Miller, sophomore
guard Eric Gold, senior forward Jeff Foss and other re-
serves made important contributions, the bulk of the
team's turnaround has to be
attributed to the improved
play of the starters.
Head coach Tom Meyer
originally went with a big
line-up, starting 6-4 seniors
Lally and Foss at the forward slots, 6-6 junior Ali Lejlic at center, 6-2 junior Jim
Nikolakakis at off (shooting)
guard and 5-11 senior Max
Shulman at the point.
For the Pontiac Tournament, Meyer went with a
smaller but quicker line-up.
He brought Foss off the
bench, moved Nikolakakis to
the small forward slot, and
started 6-0 senior Andy Laliberty in Nikolakakis's spot.
The change seemed to help
and Meyer kept this line-up
the rest of the season.

�Wrestlers Complete
Busy Season
Striving for a far ankle tight waist breakdown,
senior Marc Bechar wins a two point lead.
Although half-nelson, Grambi, Reversal and take-down might sound
strange to most people, these terms
mean much to an experienced wrestler.
The Indians, known state-wide for their
successful wrestling program, started
the season with their usual vigor and
determination. They grappled, ran, and
worked out in the weight room from
3:00 to 5:00 daily in preparation for
weekend meets. The team's dedication
produced continuous victories. Wrestlers frequently arrived at 6:15 A.M. for
early-morning running sessions and
many adjusted their diets to "make
weight."
Three returning all-conference wrestlers, Bobby Pine, 112 lbs; Marc Tadelman, 119 lbs. and Brett Youstra, 152
lbs. along with Kevin Hansen, 140 lbs.,
and Scott Shapiro, 103 lbs. have earned
impressive individual records. In fact,
Tadelman remains undefeated. The Indians have captured first place eight
out of the last nine seasons. Despite
intense perseverance, the team ended
this season, however, in fourth place.
Captain Marc Tadelman commented,
"We could have won the conference
and regional titles if we had a full
line-up." Lack of wrestlers may have
accounted for this season's record.
With at least three forfeits per meet at
160 lbs., 170 lbs., and 189 lbs., the
Indians had to fight twice as hard.
The team, under the direction of
newly appointed Gary Hutchinson, is
relatively inexperienced compared to
previous Indian teams. The team has
optimistic hopes for future seasons and
will depend upon consistency from juniors Howie Amiel, 130 lbs; Matt Stern,
135 lbs., and Bill Tsagalis, heavyweight.
Captain Brett Youstra observed, "We
still have a good program even with the
coaching changes. Coach Hutchinson is
doing a terrific job but the kids must
continue to work harder to be the Indian wrestling team that opponents
fear. They must strive to restore the
Niles West Wrestling Dynasty."
Megan Goldish
Struggling for a three point turn over, senior
Scott Shapiro manages to overpower his opponent and come up with a victory.
Vigorously attempting an overhead lock, wrestler Howie Arniel takes his opponent down. The
Indians went on to beat Waukegan West in this
meet.
Wrestling has become·a popular sport for students to participate in and attend as spectators.
With all his strength, this varsity wrestler takes
down his opponent. The team was guided by the
expertise of Coach Hutchinson.

Spirit
Even though participation dropped
in junior varsity wrestling this year,
spirited efforts by those who went out
for the sport made this season an important one for beginning wrestlers.
According to Kurt Baran, "Losses were
due to forfeits. Junior Varsity had to
forfeit seven out of fourteen weights."
More participation next year can help
prevent forfeits.
Coach Porter prepared the wrestlers
for their weekly matches by using the
weight room and putting wrestlers
against one another. Freshmen Peter
Hepner stated, "It could have been a
better season if we had more people go
out for the sport. We have a great team,
just not enough people are interested."
The training of Coach Porter provided
the wrestlers with the experience of a
first season. This year's team possesses
a bright future to a winning season
next year.

hope that future teams will

�An Unpredictable Season
Ups and downs didn't discourage Indians in the least bit. Instead, it left
them with a positive attitude, working
and striving to be the best! The 1987-88
team started off the baseball season on
the right pitch, winning their first six
games against Proviso East, Notre
Dame, Niles North, Waukegan East,
Deerfield and Highland Park. Unfortunately, the Indians experienced an unexpected losing streak soon after, losing 10 out of their 13 games. However,
during this time Coach Galla elevated
some underclassmen to see if it would
change the team's luck in any way.
Brad Niedermaier pitched many games
for the Indians making Coach Galla
extremely enthusiastic about his future as a starting pitcher for the following season. Another young player, John
Covington, took on the position of
centerfield. His performance during
this time gave Coach Galla an optimistic view about Covington's future on
the team as well. Team members did
not allow bad luck to bring their spirits
down. Steve Schaffer's views stated,
"Although our team struggled at the
end of the season, we seemed to get
better each game."
At the close of the season, many key
players were lost. Among these players
were seniors Brad Kave, Craig Harris,
Brian Israel, Dave Neuhauser, Steve
Schaffer, and Herbie Diaz. Nevertheless, Coach Galla seemed confident that
the experience gained by the remaining players during their losing streak
will result in a successful upcoming
season.

If the daily bulletin trivia questions included such items as "How can the
doldrums of everyday life be a bit more bearable?" "What can students do on
a couple of Saturday nights- different from the usual ones?" " How are kids
able to really display school spirit?", the members of Student Union would
quickly respond with the correct answers.
Meeting every Wednesday and Friday, Student Union caters to the entire
student body by involving a wide variety of students. "Student Union means
the unifying of all the grade levels and the sharing of exciting ideas that make
a full school week a bit more exciting," explains Student Union sponsor,
Dave Brandes.
Planning all the meetings, working along with the members, officers
Mindy Grossberg Nancy Penn, Yvonne Barazi and Karen Much work hard,

�Working For The Sa1ne
Goal
r
Although the differences between
freshmen and juniors seem great, their
cabinets share the same main goal of
preparing for Prom. Junior Cabinet
makes all of the arrangements for Prom,
but fundraising for this exhilarating activity begins in the freshman cabinet.
Although the freshmen had just started
high school, the class cabinet did not let
any time go to waste. Sponsor, Ms. Zucker
added, "Officers were elected early this
year which really helped us to get acquainted faster and also organized
sooner." The freshman cabinet participated in the selling of Homecoming buttons, and to show spirit they built a float
for the Homecoming Parade. President,
Natalie Figura stated, "Our goal this year
is to organize activities to involve the
whole freshman class." Vice-president
Elena Fen, secretary Katherine Ripley
and treasurer Stephanie Pasignajen
helped plan a variety of fundraisers to
begin to build the treasury that will be
used for Prom in the junior year.
After three years of hard work, the
junior class cabinet readily took on the
responsibility of the 1989 Prom as well as
planning many other activities during the
year. Preparing a successful junior-senior
Prom takes a lot of fundraising and patience. To earn money, the Junior Cabinet
sold candy and also held many bake sales
at the snack bar. Besides Prom, the juniors a lso planned the ever-popular Talent Show, a Junior-Senior Volleyball
Game, and the Twilight Dance after the
homecoming game. Excited about her
first year as sponsor, Ms. Perez stated, "I
am really happy with the Junior Cabinet,
it's great working with such hard-working
students." President Grace Diaz, vicepresident Daphne Mazarakis, secretary
Tracy Pees, and treasurer Steve Rudin,
provided leadership for the active cabinet.
Three years of school separate the
Freshmen and Junior Cabinets, but both
exhibit class spirit and also the enthusiasm and energy that contribute to the
making of Prom each year.

Catching It All
The voice of the school - covering stories from the Presidential election to the controversial mascot issue, each staff member
must have his ears open and typewriter handy to catch every
juicy story that sets foot onto the West scene. It is the entire
staff's responsibility to inform the students, faculty and administration of all the latest information from news to features, and
editorials to sports.
Although a great amount of work is involved with producing a
quality newspaper every two weeks, the staff members take pride
in their efforts as sophomore reporter Elliott Malkin said, "It
gives me a sense of accomplishment when I see my name printed
over an article in t he paper." Under the leadership of co-editorsin-chief Michelle Lewis and Mikhail Lyubansky, t he staff consisted of reporters and page editors Karin Much and Rummana
Hussain (news), Nicole Price (editorials), Masha Alexander and
Eric Phillips (features), and Jason Burk and Stacy Hosch
(sports) . Photography editor Mike Havdala, along with photographers concentrated on organizing pictures and advertising director Marc Geslani on collecting ads. Several cartoonists also
contributed their artwork to spice up the layouts.
With a surge of new reporters and editors and a redesigned
name plate, the "West Word" successfully created 16 issues with
a 10-page holiday issue and a special senior issue. Teamwork and
cooperation are the essence of the publication's success and according to the "West Word" adviser Jerome Orr, the entire staff~
put in many hours beyond the allotted classroom time to publish
a high quality newspaper.

The Student Council's legislative
branch, the Student Senate, found the
year full of challenges. Student Senate
seeked to improve the school condition,
not by planning socials, but by addressing issues of policy. Senate worked with
the administration in drafting and revising current policies. Student Senate
held meetings on Mondays and Thursdays of each week to carry out their
work. Vice president Eric Orsic
stated,"The enjoyment of Senate comes
from working to overcome the constant
challenges which we are confronted
with. Handling these obstacles and
achieving favorable outcomes beneficial
for the student body are the primary goals
of Senate." "It takes a real dedication to
be in Senate," commented Senate President Marc Gesllani, "Because the work
that we do is not always fun, in the common sense our work is fun." Some of the
issues the Senate dealt with this year
were: the Indian Mascot, the Robinson
Bus controversy, walkmans, and the problem with the bookstore. With hard work
and dedication the Senate body made
their mark on these pressing issues.

Keeping In Touch With Their Heritage
Learning the history and
culture of other lands goes
beyond the classroom for
Korean and Chinese students who became aware of
their heritage through ethnic
clubs. For two years the Chinese and Korean clubs have
provided both education and
entertainment for their
members.
For their third year, the
Chinese Club made students
and faculty more aware of
Chinese culture. Along with
the participation in the annual International Night,
the members also created a
dance party for the Chinese
New Year. According to Micheal Yu, "As one of the international clubs we simply
serve as a way for people to
communicate with others
who share interest in their
culture." President Micheal
Yu, Secretary Allen Tsao,
and Treasurer Sai-man Law
led members through another successful year which
included introducing Chinese Calligraphy and giving
Chinese cooking lessons.
Korean club, another ethnic organization, focused on
Korean current affairs. Officers decided to hold the
monthly meetings in Korean
for those members who do
not understand English very
well. Along with bake sales
and participation in lnternati onal Night, members
played in an annual volleyball tournament sponsored
by the Chicago Korean High
School Association. During
the Korean New Year, the
club performed for the elderly in various nursing homes.
Club Sponsor Angela Graham explained, "Through
Korean club bake sales and
performances at International Ni~hts, staff and students
of many backgrounds have
come to appreciate Korean
cuisine and culture, the vigor
and elegance of an ancient
civilization and a gracious
diligent and wise people." Under the direction of President
Hyung Mi Bae, VicePresident Jaewoo
Jeong, and Secretary/
Treasurer Kathy Yim,
the club attained many
of their goals such as
getting more students
involved, helping new
arrivals adjust to
American culture, and
meeting Korean students from neighboring
schools.
Although these two
clubs represent different cultures, they both
contribut e many activities which provide fun
and learning for both
members and nonmembers.

French/German Clubs
�Planning for their annual luncheon, German club president Christina
Gabriel discusses the program with the members. As one of the largest
ethnic clubs, German club's spirit continues each year.
Germans Celebrate
CULTURE
'·'Am dreiBigsten Mai ist der Weltuntergang!
Wir leben nicht mehr Jang. Wir leben nicht mehr lang!"
fi I
A sweet melody accompanies the lyrics of this song,
which seem dreary at first, telling of the nearing of the
end of the world. Melancholy does not typify German
attitudes, however, so the lyrics change and become
ironic. The first verse expresses somewhat of a horror,
"We won't be living much longer." Reflecting their optimistic attitude, the verse changes, "But nobody knows
in what year the world will end, and that's wonderful!
Perhaps we'll be here for many years still!" The joy of
living is expressed most thoroughly by Germans' commitment to celebrating, which they promise to do in
ending this song.
German teacher George Brink, or "Herr Brink," leads
his classes in singing festive songs, but classes alone do
not provide enough time for culture lessons. Students
gain a better understanding of German culture through
participation in the German club, singing songs and
planning activities pertaining to German culture. Club
members, led by president Christina Gabriel, planned a
trip to see a German film, visit a German neighborhood
in Chicago, and eat lunch and desserts at a German
pastry shop. At International Night, the German club
sang traditional German Carols, such as "O Tannenbaum." A winter ski trip brought members together for
a day of pure enjoyment on the slopes, a common activity of Germans in the southern, mountainous Bavaria.
The German club builds up its treasury with popular
bake sales each year, using some of the money to help
fund the German Exchange Program. According to
Christina Gabriel, "The German club offers students
the opportunity to explore a different culture through
activities and allows students with a common interest
in the German background to get together and enjoy
themselves.

Culture And Politics Highlight
Israeli & Filipino Clubs
To have a better understanding and appreciation of
another culture, students
join various ethnic clubs
which provide a chance to
meet friends with similar interests and engage in social
activities. Both t h e Israeli
Club and the F ilipino Club
attract a large membership
each year.
The Israeli Club teaches
students about the culture,
religion, and politics of Israel. Members enjoy a field trip
with Niles North in the middle of the year, and participate enthusiastically in International Night. During
262
Israeli/Filipino Clubs
meetings, some members
practice their Hebrew while
others socialize and ponder
situations occurring in Israel.
Club sponsor Dr. Miron, who
feels that students benefit by
their membership in the Israeli Club commented, "A
culture club is a place where
the student can get involved
emotionally, intellectually,
and physically with the people, the culture, and the fand
of the respective nation of
which the club is its extension. In that respect, the Israeli Club fulfills the need of
each participant, regardless
of his or her original back-
ground."
"Mabuhay sa inyong lahat!" might sound fam iliar
only to members of the popular Filipino Club who read
that as, " A good life to all of
you!" Filipino Club members
enjoy active participation in
school-sponsored events,
while gaining a better understanding and appreciation of
the Filipino culture. President Fehlyn Tulen stated,
"Thanks to the large membership we have, and the
abundance of enthusiasm in
our group, we were able to
participate in more activities
than we have in t he past."
Bake sales, International
Night, Volleyball games and
bowling, name just a few of
the many activities of this
club. During meetings, this
close-knit group, with the
support of new sponsor Edmund Murphy, discuss history, politics, and current situations of the Philippines.
Members of both Israeli
and Filipino Clubs, really
appreciate the benefits of belonging to an ethnic club
where they can gain a better
understanding of a different
c ulture and make new
friends too.

�Spanish Groups Keep Busy
Eating, talking and learning about
the Spanish heritage are some of the
activities of the Spanish Honor Society, sponsored by Mr. Ed Murphy
and Ms. E. Perez who look forward to
working with the students in this
organization. The students also react
very positively to their new leaders.
"Senorita Perez has brought a new
appeal and outlook to the club", says
Sophia Shakir. Members feel equally
excited about the club itself. According to Senior Mike Latash, "The
Spanish Honor Society gives its
members a chance to explore Span-
ish and Latin American Culture in
depth and to find out exactly what is
behind all the things we have been
learning about all these years.".
The Spanish Club has participated
in many honorable activities such as
donating to the Mexican Flood
Emergency relief fund and also donating time and Christmas gifts to
underpriviledged hispanic children
at Casa Central Day Care Center.
Senior President Xyla Gatilao adds,
"What you get out of Spanish Club is
beyond classroom verb conjugation.
Here one can experience and taste a
little Spanish culture. To be able to
communicate with a child who could
only speak Spanish is lots of fun!" The
club also provides a chance of its members to form new friends and relationships. "Spanish Club allows students to
meet and talk to others who share a
common interest. Ethnic clubs are one
of the best ways to learn about other
cultures, outside of visiting the country.", added secretary Nicole Pr ice.

�Awaiting the next question, team members Yiwen Chang, Marc
Slutzky, and Suzanne Ahn are ready! In this meet, they competed
against Evanston.
During a practice session, academic bowl members test their
knowledge by group discussions and by the use of computers. Practice
is necessary for the team to compete with other local schools.
The Brainy Bunch
"Bzzzzzzzzz," sounds the buzzer, pressed by a member of the Academic Bowl team, to indicate willingness
to answer the question. A competition based on a quick
hand and a quicker mind, has captivated eligible juniors
and seniors.
The competition can be conducted in one of two
ways. Traditionally, teams of five students from different schools compete in a buzzer contest to see how
quickly and correctly questions can be answered. The
team with the most points, based on speed and accuracy, advances to the next round. In another type of
competition, known as the AUK competition, a large
group of students gathers around a computer, which
runs a disk with the AUK questions. The schools that
score in the top of this nationwide competition receive
various prizes, such as money or a trip.
A new contest called the STARS 2000 High School
Academic Team Competition combines the two methods. Computer controlled rounds, similar to the AUK
contest, begin the competition. If a team scores in the
top 50~',, on the first round, it advances to the second.
After the second round, the top sixteen teams nation wide advance to Lexington, Kentucky, where a buzzer
round completes the contest. Second, third, and fourth
place winners receive an IBM computer for their school
and the top placing team gets $10,000 for their school.

�"Delinquents?" On The Contrary - NHS
Members
An everyday, indistinguishable student passed by the Multi-Purpose Room after
school one day and noticed a huge mob of students inside, creating an incredible fuss.
He wondered what organization it was, then reconsidered and decided the detention
hall had been moved to house the large number of delinquents he saw. He proceeded
down the hallway pondering the terrible situation the supervising teach er would have
to deal with. Meanwhile, in the Multi-Purpose Room, Mrs. Horwitz and Mrs. Handler
struggled to quiet the "delinquents." Everyone settled down, and a meeting of members
of the National Honor Society began, quite the opposite of a meeting of delinquents.
The National Honor Society, NHS, has an unusually large number of me mbers,
reflecting the talent of this year's senior class. More than 70 students have been
inducted to the society, despite the strict criteria for membership. Students must
demonstrate a high level of scholarship and participation through activities in t he
school and must also possess records free from incidents of cheating or improper
behavior.
Pledging themselves to maintain these standards, NHS members support charitable
activities such as a holiday food drive, the Crusade of Mercy, and a spring blood drive.
Other activities such as a fall volleyball tournament provide enjoyment for members,
while raising funds for charities, and reflect t he society's desire to blend academic
achievements with ath letics, since many members hold interest in both.
Under the guidance of Mrs. Handler and Mrs. Horwitz, NHS has sought to become
more active and more recognized. A fall induction ceremony especially aimed at underclassmen, who may be inspired by the image and strive to gain the standards of
members in the NHS, presented a strong, positive image of NHS. "NHS, through the
guidance of our sponsors, will leap into full school participation and will hopefully
stand out with deserved recognition," asserted James Lee, who, along with Scott Toban,
Matt Reznik, and president Suzanne Ahn leads this prestigious group.
Each member of NHS has pride in his accomplishments and involvement with NHS,
and each time he dons his blue t-shirt displaying the gold emblem designed by Hak
Kang, he has a renewed sense of self respect. James Lee concluded, "The marked
difference in this year's NHS is that we're willing to stand out and be recognized rather
than run our activities from the background shadow."

�Prairie
People
Although ecology club acquaints students interested in nature with the prairie, it also teaches the members about various natural ecosystems found in northern
Illinois. Members participate in
various field trips to places such as
Indiana Dunes, Starved Rock, the
Field Museum, Brookfield Zoo,
and Cantigny. According to club
sponsor Gerald Firak, "We take
students to places they ordinarily
would not go by themselves." Besides going on field trips, the
members also tend to the nearby
prairie preserves by burning it and
replanting it with different types
of wild flowers and plants found
in northern Illinois. Unfortunately this valuable club may die out
unless interested students replace
the departing seniors. Ecology
club, which has been around since
the 1960's, has proved to be of
great value to both students and

�Shutterbugs
Checking out a negative in the light, photography club members smile proudly at their work. The
group met after school to practice and discuss t heir skills.
" What type of film was used?" " What
was your shutter speed ?" "That is a great
shot!" These are some common remarks
heard at a typical meeting of the N iles
West Photo Club.
The photo club, which meets every other
Tuesday, is a great way for anyone even
slightly inte rested in photography to exp ress their ideas and creativity. Members
critique other students' work by offering
comments on the picture composition and
developing techniques.
The club, with science teacher John
Beeftink as a sponsor, is open to all grade
levels. There are currently more than 20
participatns. It provides members with the
opportunity to meet with fellow students
who share an interest in photography.
Members are allowed to use t he school
darkroom during club time or the students'
free time. The darkroom is a luxury for
students who usually do not have access to
one. It is a fantastic way to gain knowledge
about darkroom techniques.
The club sponsors an annual photo contest in which color and black and white
prints a re accepted. It is open to all students at Niles West as well as faculty members.
Photography is a great way to show everyone how you see the world. If 20 photographers were given an assignment to shoot
the same t hing, you would get 20 different
shots. The pictures would vary in angle,
view and composition. Each would tell a
different story based on the style of the
photographer.
Since Niles West does not offer photography courses as a part of their classroom
curriculum, the Photo Club gives its part icipants the chance to develop their own
pictures, build a portfolio of their work and
develop friendships with other "shutterbugs."

�Not A Sad Story, But A SADD Story
Crashed cars, key chains, and campaigns don't do it all for S.A.D.D. Hard
work, time, and most importantly people, makes Students Against Driving
Drunk grow in size and p_ower each year.
When prom time rolls around, everyone expects the wrecked car out on the
lawn, but this year SADD members sponsored a campaign during the holidays, before winter break and celebrated SADD Day. They decorated the
walls with the posters and slogans from a chapter-wide contest for the
holiday campaign. For SADD Day, face paint was used to write on members'
faces. The club also represented the school at a community crime prevention
display in Skokie. All in all, SADD acquired new members, used new ideas,
and, best of all, got its message across to more people. SADD secretary, Karin
Much, commented, "Students Against Driving Drunk is worthwhile because
it helps people and saves lives, while informing the public of the dangers of
drinking and driving. The thing that people should realize is that SADD's
purpose is not to tell people not to drink. We just don't want people to drink
and drive."

Peer Counseling advisor David Lee explains the new game to students. New
friendships are born through this club.
Peeri ng In On The Group
Although friends commonly sit around talking about current happenings ,
Peer Groups take this activity one step further. Student Leadership / Peer
Counseling began four years ago when social worker David Lee held the first
training meeting with twenty-five students. Because teen-agers can strongly
influence each other, the Peer Group goal as stated in their handbook, is
"channeling this peer influence in a positive, growth-prod ucing direction,
attempting to help teens develop a more positive self-concep t and social
skills, make good judgments, and become more responsible ."
Students interested in leading groups learn important tools of communica tion such as feedback, paraphrasin g, summarizin g, and body language. After
training one hour after school for twenty weeks, students qualify to pass on
their new knowledge. Subgroups of five to ten teens and two leaders meet
during their free time, lunch or study hall.
The Peer Group program now consists of fifty-five leaders. In addition to
learning communica tion skills and engaging in fun energizers, the groups
have many open-ended discussions that cover a wide range of topics and
interests.

�Leaders Pave
The Way
Helping other students improve
their fitness and physical skills,
kept Leaders in the P.E. program
busy. Leaders had the opportunity
to test individual leadership and
teach their peers. Member Jaye
Jao stated, "Leaders is really a lot
of fun. You learn to be responsible
and at the same time help out the
P.E. teachers conduct class."
The sponsors of the Leaders
program, Bill Schnurr and Lee
Heeren, both agree that Leaders
gym benefits both students and
teachers. The physical education
staff greatly appreciates the help
of the Leaders. Besides leading exercises, and demonstrating techniques in classes they "lead", the
leaders also attend a daily gym
class made up of only leaders,
where they all compete. Junior
Leader Rachel Berman enjoys being a leader because she has met a
lot of new people. She also stated," I just wish more people would
get involved in the program."

�Tuto rs To The Resc ue
Sweating through many hours of difficult study can
leave one doubtful of his or her own abilities. Therefore ,
to eliminate this problem, many students turn to members of the tutor's club. Students seeking help sign up at
the Foreign Language Resource Center for an appointment during the day or after school with one of the
thirty-five members of this club. According to club advisor Mrs. Horwitz, the most common requests are in
chemistry , geometry and algebra, as well as other math
and science courses.
Senior JiSun Kim commente d, "When I tutor people,
I find I enjoy helping others when they ask seek my
help." Summing it up, senior Susan Quach expressed ,
"It gives the tutorer and the student a feeling of accomplishmen t after each appointm ent."

�Two Noted Groups
Making music throughout the year, Chorus and Orchestra, share their talent with the school and Walt
Disney World this year. Expressions, Concert Choir,
and Girls' Ensemble make up the choral group Ensemble. With the exception of Girls' Ensemble, the chorus
toured Orlando, Florida to perform at EPCOT Center
and Disney World. "After three years in chorus, I've
seen it grow into a very organized group. This year, the
chorus was very strong. We're singing music ranging
from classical to jazz and our choreography is energetic
and fits the music." commented senior Kevin Steele.
Many people said that chorus was a great experience
because they learned a lot while enjoying themselves.
Sheri Owens summed it up by saying, "This year has
been a great one. We peake.J "'ith our awesome Florida
Tour."
The Chorus accompanied the Orchestra on their tour
of Florida. They won the Homecoming float contest for
the fifth consecutive year. Orchestra President Xyla
Gatilao expressed, "With the majority of the Orchestra
being seniors, we looked to this year's Florida tour as an
special memorable experience." According to most orchestra members, this year is not only special because of
the tour. It's special to them because Ted Kaitchuck,
orchestra leader, will retire at the end of the school
year. He concluded, "My desire is for all my students
to continue music as both performers professionally, or
as amateurs to enhance their lives through the arts."

�Marching And Keeping In Step
Improving more and
more every day and growing in size each year, the
color guard and marching
band add an exciting touch
to school activities.
Long, hard hours of practice on Tuesdays help prepare the color guard for
home-game performances.
Their waving flags, smiling
faces, and bright uniforms
add excitement to both
football and basketball
games and make the members more recognizable.
This extracurricular activity provides the chance for
new friendships as members meet people.
Sponsor Mr. Koch, captain Kathy Schroeder, and
co-captain Wendy Abragan
organize routines for this
activity which requires
both time and commitment
from its hardworking
members. Color guard offers students the opportunity to improve coordination while building
friendships.
Accompanying the color
guard and also Porn pon
squad, the marching band
adds enthusiastic spirit to
half-time performances at
football games, school assemblies, parades, and concerts. Band director, Mr.
Koch, creates the many different routines and coordinates them to perfection.
In addition, Koch organizes the band's participation in competitions, con-
ducts the band during performances, and selects the
musical pieces to play.
To perfect their routines,
the marching band practices long and tedious
hours during their regular
class periods, one night a
week, and several times
during the summer. The
marching band has had
much success throughout
the year because of their "
many well-rehearsed and
performed concerts.
Being part of band or
color guard leads to many

A Dazzling
Performance!
With giant smiles and porn-pons in
hand, twenty-two girls danced across the
field during halftime. Rain or shine, the
Porn Pon squad never failed to dazzle the
crowd. Under the guidance of captains
Jeannie Choi and Rachel Posner, the
team made it through all the practices
and halftime routines.
To prepare for the season, the squad
attended a Badgerettes camp at the University of Wis consin at Whitewater
Spending four days there, in August,
strengthened their abilities and taught
them new skills. Treasurer Melissa Connell, remarked, "Camp brings the team
closer every summer, and a unified squad
always works better together at practices
and in the games." Long practices in the
summertime and meetings three times a
week during the school year also contributed to the squad's success. New member
Beth Lichtenstein commented, "The practices were long and hard, just as I had
been warned. However, it was such an
honor to be part of the squad that I would
do it all over again."

Spirit At The Sidelines
Smiling, jumping, and
shouting words of encouragement, cheerleaders
played a major role in the
success of the school's
sports teams. Approximately three times a week
after school, freshman,
sophomore, and varsity
cheerleaders practiced to
perfect their cheers,
mounts, and stunts.
After attending a fiveday camp in the summer
and ranking among the
top twenty squads, cheerleaders entertained at pep
assemblies and sporting
events. The varsity squad,
led by captains Amy Cho
and Lisa Schapira, per-
284
Cheerleaders
formed for halftime at a
DePaul University basketball game. Throughout
the year, cheerleaders put
in time and effort to rouse
the spirit of the Indians.
According to sponsor Karen Young, " We were very
lucky to have so many
hard-working girls with
terrific attitudes to represent our school." From
class cheering contests in
the gym to first and second place awards at camp,
the girls succeeded in getting the crowds on their
feet to cheer their teams
on to victory.

Coping With Those Dreaded
Deadlines
Layout sheets?? We have none! Can
someone get a photographer by 3:00??
What do you mean we have no pictures??
Where did all our croppers disappear to??
Our deadline is, . . . TOMORROW!!
Restless editors, staff members, and
photographers rambled about at all hours
of the day working towards one laborious
goal - the completion of the 1988-89
Spectrum! Due to the early departure of
the senior class, deadlines had to be met
promptly so that the book would be released before May 30. Advisers Jerome
Orr and Linda Horwitz took on various
responsibilities such as proof reading
countless stories, meeting with Jostens re-

presentatives, and mailing finished layouts on time.
Once again, the staff consisted of two
classes. Brainstorming brought together
the diverse, yet creative ideas of both
groups. Putting these ideas into use
through various stories, layout designs,
and artwork resulted in the success and
quality of "Doing It All".
Upon completing the final deadline in
February, copy sheets, croppers, job number sti: kers, and film became remnants of
c
a hectic 6 months of work.

books arrive for seniors before graduation.
Co-editors-in-chief, Estelle Nikolakakis and Parveen Najiullah,

needed to make the book more interesting than the year before.

Karyn Elliott, one of the ten nominees for
Homecoming Queen, and Craig Gramatls, noml·
nee for King, enjoy a pleasant ride down Oakton
street during the parade. Many clubs also took
part In the parade with creative multicolored
floats.
�Checking In
Along with the high ranked status of "the senior class" comes the
privilege of being nominated to Homecoming court. King and Queen
nominees anxiously await the results of the election.
Early every weekday
morning, the tranquil, undisturbed halls of NiWeHi undergo a remote transformation. Students begin to pile
into the building by the dozens, and tranquility is suddenly replaced by an explosion of ear-piercing voices.
" Checking In" has become a
daily ritual of these high
school students. It acknowledges the start of another
challenging school day.
Students riding the school
bus usually arrive first , thus
enjoying a full 30 minute free
time. They await the appearance of their buses at various stops throughout Linco lnwood, Morton Grove,
Niles, and Skokie. More fortunate students, normally
upperclassmen, have the
privilege of driving to school.
Students prefer to drive
rather than take the bus because it means an extra half
hour of sleep and a later departure from home. Nevertheless, even driving has its
disadvantages. Arriving at
school later often means
searching for a parking
space, and sometimes walking from the far end of the
lot in bad weather.
Once inside the building,
the majority of students
lounge in the cafeteria. A
manifold of loud , chattering
voices echo throughout the
cafeteria , Oakton Lobby,
and hallways. Others prefer
a more serene environment,
choosing the library or resource centers to complete
homework. An overabundance of students wait for
their turn in front of the
overcrowded bathroom mirrors, and the pounding of
basketballs vibrate throughout the contest gym.
Finally , the 7:30 bell
sounds . The previously
crowded hallways are suddenly empty and peaceful.
Only the familiar sound of
the P.A. announcements can
be heard. Another school
day has begun .
Junior Calvin Ramseyer enjoys the excess attention he receives after his unfortunate
injury. Close friends and classmates take time out of their schedules to comfort him.
A smile of satisfaction appears on senior
Jlnjer Brody's face as she completes a
perfectly coordinated routine. As usual,
the pom pon girls use creativity and skill·
ful moves to Impress their audience.

�Checking Up On
Vocabulary
Any intelligent student at
Niles West knows the importance of a well developed vocabulary. No matter what
class a student takes, vocabulary always plays a part.
Vocabulary can even help a
student relate to both past
events, and new experiences. Every high school
student should know these
few terms:

student who buys elevator
passes. 3. A student who
looks for homeroom grade
on his report card. 4. Someone who brings home every
book and studies them vigorous I y, even though
homework wasn't assigned .
5. A student who wanders
aimlessly.
Sophomore (sot/a mor),
1. Underclassman. 2. A student who thinks he knows
what he is doing, but
doesn't. 3 . A student who
rules the busses since juniors and seniors don't take
them.
Junior (jUn/yar), 1. Upperclassman. 2. A student
who realizes college is
around the corner. 3. A victim of the ACT and SAT.
Senior (sen/yar), 1. Up-
permostclassman. 2. A student who knows what to do
yet prefers not to do it. 3.
One whose main function is
laziness. 4. A student who
knows, loves, and anxiously
waits for David Letterman to
come on. 5. A student who
suffers from senioritis.

The incurable disease of desiring to graduate from high
school without working. 2.

�Enthusiasm rocked the hallways, as school spirit erupted throughout NiWeHi! The feelings of suspense and excitement roared in the gymnasium during pep assemblies. Friends and enemies alike forgot their differences
and set out for a common goal, to cheer out teams to
victory.
The feelings of unity and enthusiasm were evident as
the flocks of student crammed into the gymnasium. Explosions of red and white bodies filled the once empty
bleachers. Fans yelled, screamed, and of course, chanted
the school spirit songs.
School spirit was not only shown at the pep assemblies,
but throughout the entire week leading up to the games.
The Midnight Riders displayed much school spirit
throughout the season. They went on toilet paper frenzies at varsity athletes' houses to inspire positive winning
attitudes.
Homecoming week arrived, bringing with it mobs of
psyched Indians. Hundreds of painted students went on a
spirit warpath to express their enthusiasm. Activites for
the week consisted of dress up days which involved class
levels wearing different colors and unusual styles of dress
attire, contests for the best toga, greatest putting ability
in golf, and the quick football uniform change contest.
These were all held to boost spirit and morale. The dedication to school spirit will never die in the hearts of our
true-blue, red and white Indians.
���If one were to ask seniors , "What 's new at
school? " , they would
probably answer, "Not
much!" In fact, some
would consider the absence of Nibs in the vending machines · or the di~
continuation of "th'e
thought for the day' ' in
the daily bulletin as the
most significant turn of
their high school careers;
however , with time
comes change, and during the past four years,
the senior class has
adapted to several transformations within the
school. Some alterations
were advantageous to
students , while others
forced students to adjust
to different lifestyles at
school. Each September,
students returned finding
at least one aspect of
their school different.
Some of these changes
that the seniors saw during their four year terms
"
were:
A NEWLY REPAVED
PARK I NG LOT lacking
spe,ed bumps and potholes and providing a
smoother ride for C~RS.
A CAR, and numerous
watches painted on the
uninteresting cafeteria
wall by several talented
STUDENTS .
THE STUDENTS' dream of
a pop machine was finally
realized in 1985 when one
was installed in the hall
outside of the cafeteria.
For many students, the
soda replaced school
lunches and, hence, created disapproval among
the ADM INISTRATION .
THE ADM INISTRATION
decided to revoke students' privileges of free
access in the halls af,ter a
series of senior pranks. A
new system of closed hall-
ways was incorporated to
decrease disorder and
CLASSROOM DISRUPTION.
CLASSROOM DISRUPTION due to hallway noise
was a key reason for installing beige carpeting
outside classrooms. Besides absorbing sound , it
gave a neater appearance
to THE HALLWAYS.
THE HALLWAYS were
painted pink to compliment the tiny bits of pink
in the tiles which were
covered a year later with
CARPETING .
While each class might
claim to have seen it all,
every student will always
see the new come in and
the old go out. Each year,
our school has continued
to expand in hopes of creating a perfect environ ment in which students
and faculty can learn and
work.
�O.k., we 're seniors!
We've struggled through
the difficult years of high
school. The so called
"blow-off year" has finally
arrived, right? Wrong!
Plenty of hard work was
still ahead for students in
their senior year. College
preparations made up the
bulk of this hard work.
Many students failed to
realize the importance of
meeting application deadlines. "Colleges filled up
so quickly, this year more
than any. If you missed a
deadline, they wouldn't
even give you the benefit
of the doubt," commented college counselor
Frank Mustari.
Besides application
deadlines, colleges pressured seniors to keep
grades up and to choose
challenging senior year
courses. Colleges commonly refused to admit
students who met class
rank and test score requirements, but took
"push-over classes" and
let their grades drop during senior year.
Students who had beei:i
accepted to a college
couldn't afford to let their
grades drop either. Even
after admission, the colleges kept a close watchful eye on the students'
performance in the classroom until graduation.
College deadlines and
requirements definitely
put a strain on seniors. To
cope with these pressures, seniors had to continue working as hard as
in their previous high
school years.
,
I
���Every year in May, something isn't
right. The hallways seem more quiet
and less crowded. Freshmen walk
unharassed. The senior section of
the cafeteria is suddenly uninhabited. Students notice that the seniors
have disappeared. The big question
is: Where have all the seniors
gone??? For many years, seniors
have banded together to blow off
one day of school, know as Senior
Cut Day. On this day, seniors gather
together at a beach, the forest preserve, or other favorite outdoor spot
to relax and party with their obnoxiously rowdy peers. When asked how
long Senior Cut Day has existed, Mr.
Albiani responded, "For as long as I
can remember."
Controversy has arisen over this
tradition , and many efforts have
been made to stop this unruly behavior. "I don't see anything wrong
with Senior Cut Day," commented
junior Estelle Nikolakakis. " Seniors
deserve a day off anyway." However, the deans and administration feel
differently about the situation . They
have tried to deter this one day
strike with extra long detensions and
suspensions, but the seniors always
seem to prevail. "I hope Senior Cut
Day will still be a tradition when I'm a
senior," stated freshman Geoff
Pyter.
�Some seniors have very unusual names. Some don't. We've taken some of those not so unusual
names and made them unusual.
Don't you think it would be funny
if:
SCOTT was an EVE instead of
ari ADAMS
SARI was a BARBER instead of a

���Toilet paper, heaps and heaps of
soft toilet paper, was found thrown
over the trees and bushes. Senior
Midnight Riders scurried silently in
the darkness of the night. Every
evening before a football, soccer, or
basketball game, a group of dedicated senior girls took a couple of
hours to bake cookies, make creative posters, and gather up rolls
and rolls of toilet paper to decorate
the players' houses. These acts
boosted the spirit not only of the
players, but also allowed these girls
to actively participate in bringing
spirit to all of NiWeHi.
Commenting on the spirited group
are some of the senior Midnight Riders. "Midnight Riding allowed me to
get involved in school spirit. It was a
great feeling the next morning when
the players told us that we did a great
job teepeeing their houses. It made me
feel appreciated and totally psyched
me up for those Friday night games,"
stated Cathy Smith. Another senior rider, Amy Fullet, added , " Sometimes the
players didn't get enough credit for all
their hard work. Having their houses
tee-peed let them know that we cared
and appreciated all of their efforts."
Even though Midnight Riding was not
always compatible with the Riders'
schedules, this activity still allowed
them to participate in school spirit,
even after the school day ended at
NiWeHi!

���That was the question that every
senior had to ask continuously during his or her four years at Niles
West. Students either studied hard
and had limited free time, or didn't
study and depended upon pure fate
and good luck.
When first entering high school,
most students studied strenuously
to get off to a good start. Like most
freshmen, books were carried home
by the dozen. Sophomore year,
part-time jobs and other activities
became part of the daily schedule,
and students' free time was restricted to an even greater extent. Eventually, junior year arrived and students received the big warning. " Get
your act together for college NOW!"
This bit of advice was heard time
and time again. Some chose to listen
to these sincere words of wisdom,
while others ignored them. PSAT's
and ACT's came into the picture,
and students began looking into col-
lege and career choices. Last, but
never least, senior year appeared.
Signs of "senioritis" were diagnosed
among members of the senior class.
Some of the more common symptoms included laziness. lack of interest in school work, and the downright urge to party! By the end of the
year, most seniors hadn't a care in
the world. They felt they deserved
freedom from homework after three
long tedious years of studying. This
was their time to sit back, relax, and
enjoy themselves for the remainder
of their high school lives. They had
finally fulfilled their requirements
and applied to schools that they
were interested in attending. All that
was left to do was wait. So seniors
waited for the day that they would
become freshmen once again. Soon ,
they would have to ask themselves
that same question one more time.
To study or not to study, that is the
question.
�Many teachers have fam iliar
sayings that their students will always remember. Those same
words, phrases, sentences and
quotes are something we can all
relate to. Some of these quotes
will go down in the Niles West History book.
Mr. Schutt - "I'm not going to
be your buddy, your pal, or
your friend."
Mr. Strnad - "Teens are great!"
Mr. Koch - "Join the band
wagon."
Mr. Savage - "Join the track
team and you'll get an
automatic A."
Mr. Hill - "Hey tigers!"
Miss O'Reiley - "Come on
chi co." (Erase ... erase ... )
Mr. Dvorak - "5, 5, or l."
Mr. Lucas - "This year I'm going
to get real strict with you
girls."
Mr. Boevers - "Oh sorry, I got
sidetracked again."
Mrs. Hentz - "Alright ... I'm
wrong again."
Ms. VanDorpe - "Hmmmm."
Miss Stevens - "25 extra points
if you turn your outline in on
Monday."
Mr. Galla - "Any comments, any
questions, can you think of
anything?"
Mr. Orr - "This year I'm not
going to yell. If you want a fall
delivery ... "
Mr. Knaak - "Open your
Warrener's."
���"Make sure you have
lead in your .mechanical
pencil." These words erlcompass the advice of
senior Gail Gutterman to
those preparing to take
the PSAT. Gail, along with
fellow seniors Lisa Halliday, Meena Ravella, and
Nick Nafpliotis, was
named a national merit
semi-finalist.
To become a semi-finalist, a student must take
the PSAT as a junior.
Those students who
score in the top 1.5 percent are semi-finalists and
may try for the rank of "finalist." About 90 percent
of the semi-finalists become finalists. Those who

One of the main benefits of becoming a national merit semi-finalist, and
then a finalist, is that it
opens up the opportunity
of special merit scholarships to the students. At
the very least, colleges
are greatly impressed.
The main pieces of advice to future PSAT testtakers given by Gail , Nick,
and Meena were to take
practice tests and to
study the vocabulary.
Students should also try
not to worry about the
test too much, according
to Lisa . And , most importantly, don 't forget the
lead for your pencil!

���You're planning to take an A.P.
course! Ask yourself these questions
before you commit yourself. Are
A.P. classes the most challenging
courses at West? Can I cram for the
essay test the night before? Even
though the answers to these significant questions differ, one thing that
all students agree on is the 20 hours
of studying needed each week. Depending on the content, A. P. classes
differ. All teachers conduct their
classes in varying ways, and A.P. students have a variety of opinions
about A.P. classes:
Greg Rudin "For a big guy like me, I
can handle anything."
Brian Buehling "They are extremely
hard, especially if you do not study."
Tom Dallianis "Not a blowoff, a lot of
work. Afterall, it is a college credit
it is worth."
Mike Tipesco " Challenging."
Eric Biljetina "I think it is the
same as an honors class. There's
just more homework."
Eric Orsic "Basically they are
pretty challenging. "
Anne Liosatos "Stimulate my
thinking. "
�A congruent group, just as one.
Our senior class shared lots of
fun.
Together we started at a time
not so near,
App ~opriately named freshman
year.
Meeting each other, such an
easy start,
Not even a thought of our final
depart.
Sophomore year developed with
the name,
Our bunch of wise fools did not
easily tame .
The games and antics were part
of our spirit,
Too bad nobody else wanted to
hear it.
Junior year started off with a
blast,
Rockets glared, for we became
upperclass.
College and preparation
required some thought,
Without all these, most would
have been caught.
At last senior year was finally
achieved ,
Along with the spirit on which
we believed.
Together our class laughed,
cried, and learned ,
Obtaining the position we
consistently urged.
Our spirit has leapt to soaring
heights,
From here we will try with all
our mights.
���Where will you be after college
graduation? Maybe you will be the
next lotto winner, the new bass player for Bruce Springsteen, or maybe
even the new Larry Bird. The future
lies in your hands, shaped by your
hopes and dreams. When Niles West
seniors were asked what their after
college plans were, they gave the
following responses:
"I hope to be drafted by the
Cubs."
Brad Kave
''To vacation in Hawaii and
become a physical therapist.''
Lilianna Williamson
"To be a D.J. for B96."
Aurleto Merkato
"I'd like to attend graduate
school and become a doctor.
Vince Fang
"I want to be very, very rich."
Anthony lrpino
"I'd like to marry a rich and
successful guy."
Tracey Michaels
"To be a high school math
teacher.''
Jenny Anast
"I'd like to invent mirrored
contact lenses."
Carrie Hintzke
"I am going to move to Bedrock
so I can live with my dad and
workout with stone weights and
get huge."
Howie Aronesti
"I wish to reconcile with my
parents for their Audi 5000 S."

�Many changes took
place between freshman
and senior year. Seniors
walked around empty
handed, while the naive
babies of the school, the
"freshies," carried
around their entire locker
with a schedule in clear
view. They had to be cautious of their every move,
because humiliation
seemed to follow them
everywhere, whether
walking into the wrong
classroom, tripping up the
stairs, or dropping trays
in the cafeteria. These
events caused enough
embarrassment to last a
lifetime, or so it seemed.
Sophomore year
brought a relief from the
pressure of freshman status. The worries of getting, or actually forgetting, how to get to the
gym had disappeared.
Horray! The excitement
of being an upperclass-
man came junior year
when they were finally
seated on the lower level
for pep assemblies, received driver's licenses,
and became part of varsity teams. As juniors, they
began to think about post
high school plans.
Seniors at last, they
had made it to the top!
They didn't have anyone
to look up to anymore,
just younger people to
look at and impress with
their new superiority.
Seniors not only had the
chance to feel "cool" this
year, but also finally had
to decide on the college
they would be attending.
The following quotes by
seniors reflect how they
feel they have changed:
"I have . . .
.
become more mature"
. . . . Cindy Levrne
fewer brain cells" ....
Ben Vashon

���Partying, going to flicks, and cruising is how we, the seniors, spent our
weekends. Even though we couldn't
always find a happenin' spot, we always managed to find a way to have
a fine time. Not everyone hung out
with the same people, but within
crowds. The more mellow student
found himself more content just
studying at home or simply relaxing.
However, the majority of students
found themselves searching for
something new and exciting to do.
Seniors felt that their weekends had
changed entirely since their freshman year. Most say that they now
have more freedom. The following
list gives an idea of how the class of
'88 spent their weekends.
Julie Wickell . .. " I studied and
went to church ... I think."
Frank Brodsky . .. "I tried to block
school out of my mind."
Anonymous ... "I hung out at the
Touhy McDonald's and squeeled
my tires."
Lisa Meisner . . . " I went out with
Gus."
Brad Carstens ... "I studied with
Ducky."
Ann Liosatos ... "I caught up on
sleep."
Kevin Lochner ... "I had a big tea
party and watched the Smurfs."
Roderick Pintang . .. "I went to
dances and to parties with my
friends. "
Greg Rappin ... "I played in a
band."
Dawn Jacobs .. . "I stayed home
and studied with Ducky and
Brad."
Angela Hanga ... " I got chased by
cops from one place to
another."
Stacy Stratigakes ... "I planned a
diet that would start on
Monday."
�People come and people go,
It happens every day.
And though good-bye is such a
simple word,
I find it hard to say.
Our friendships in these past
four years,
I've cherished from the start.
Although we ' re going our
separate ways,
We 'll still be close at heart.
As I sadly watch you leaving me,
I'll try hard not to cry.
Because this isn't the only time,
I'll have to say good-bye.
��Juniors Jeni Duda and Danielle Chams find a cozy spot on the front lawn to finish
studying for their test. Studying together often helps students to accomplish
more work in less time.

colored roses decorate the .tables surrounding a magnificent dance floor.
Upon this floor a crowd. of Juniors and

These .Juniors, along with the Sponsor,

Prom. The responsibilities of the cabi..
net include choosingthe location. auditioning the band, and selecting the exact cot-Ors and styles of the bids and
favors.
Student$ may ask why the Juniors,
rather than the Seniors, arrange Prom.
Cabinet member, Dawn Rugendorf explains. "It's like a present to the Seniors or a farewell party. By the time
May comes along, Seniors are getting
set for graduation and don't want all
the responsibility of having to create
their own Prom."
Junior Class Cabinet members
spend much of their first semester
planning bake sales and card sales to
increase the treasury so that by second semester, they can focus all their
attention on Prom.
When ihe streamers come down and
the last tabtes are cleared, the glitter of

��College Spirit
Taking a quick glance around the
hallways, Niles West. students might
wonder if they. are . attending high
schoel or one of the many colleges in
ttje n~tion. A great number of students
contioue to wear sweatshirts. I-shirts,
arn:I sweatpants with college logos
printed across their chests (and sometimes their behinds)! These logos include various colleges and universities
such as Harvard, Arizona State, or University of Michigan.
Frequently during the weekends,
many NiWeHi students flock to the universities of Illinois, Indiana. Wisconsin,
and Iowa, among others. to buy out the
local bookstore's supply of clothing,
thus filling their empty closets back
home. This habit may become ex·
tremely expensive for mom, but as junior Sundy Thompson states. "They
are worth every penny." Most of the
apparel comes from midwestern
schools since many of the brothers and
sisters of students attend these colleges and bring home wearable presents.
While walking down the hall, students
should take notice of this popular craze
and try to confirm if they really do attend Niles West or some elite college.

�What A Nightmare!
Slowly rising out of bed, Joe, the
typical NiWeHi student, stumbles
across the dark shadowy hallways to
the shower when a thought jumps his
mind: TEST, or more accurately, remorse for forgetting to study for a test.
At 7:00 a.m. Joe hurriedly dresses,
with suds still in his hair and stubble on
his cheeks and chin. While running
down the stairs, eating breakfast. and
even proceeding to the bus stop, Joe
tries to absorb the material from his
previously untouched book for his third
period class. Purposely missing the
first two classes of the day. he tries to

cram more information into his head
for the test, and as a result, receives
two more hours of detention. Arriving
for the dreaded test, Joe hears his
teacher announce that the test will not
be administered until a later date. At
this point, Joe, ready for a doctor, or at
least a pass to the nurse, hears a highpitched ring interrupting his nervous
breakdown. The scream of his alarm
clock causes Joe to bolt straight up in
bed as he realizes that this fiasco has
only occurred in an extremely bad
dream.
Hoping that he will gain the final point needed to
win. Calvin Ramseyer concentrates on his serve.
Tennis was one of the many options available to

Sophomores
Sophomores returned
to school. cool and confident. No longer would
they have to check the
numbers and the arrows
on the walls to see which
way their next class was.
No more getting hit by
pennies. buying bogus
elevator passes. or having
"fresh1e" yelled at them
as they walked through
the halls. The torture was
finally over. and privileges
such as open campus and
driver ' s ed had arrived.
Selecting coarses
seemed easier because a
wider variety was made
available. The maiority of
sophomores produced
schedules consisting of
classes such as geometry.
biology. and Western
C1v1l1zat1on. among many
others. Fortunate sophomores who met the requirements of a specific
cut-off date were able to
begin driver's ed. while
others were forced to either wa it until Junior year
of take private lessons.
The only remaining dilema for sophomores was
the fact that they were
still considered underclassmen. However. receiving the title of upperc I ass men gave them
something to look for ward to. for they knew
that 1t didn't lie very far
ahead.
Sophomores find that making friends becomes easier and easier as the
years progress. Students find time to during lunch or before and after
school to visit with friends and make plans for the weekend.

Getting frustrated about a long

sophomore Anne Pullano decides to
get extra help from her teacher.
Teachers assist students both before and after school.
�Members of Sophomore Cabinet Leyla Arsan and Marla Schrager distribute
ballots for the Homecoming King and Queen elections. All class levels
participated in the elections and chose Joy Grossberg and Anthony lrpino.
The Real Thing
They entered their assigned rooms, not fully aware of the
task being undertaken. As they sat down and checked in,
the tension grew. Then they received their test booklets and
answer sheets. While taking out their #2 pencils, sophomores listened to the instructor explain the directions for
taking the PACT. Most students hadn 't anticipated the level
of intensity for the test.
The examination lasted three hours, and began with questions pertaining to the student's personal background and
study habits. The test then progressed to the harder questions, which dealt with English, Math, Reading Comprehension, and Science. As the hours passed, students felt
drained . "The test was so long that by the t ime I r eached
the last part. my mind was like a mashed potato,'' said Karin
Much. Some spent most of their time rereading the information given, while others randomly filled in ovals.
After completing the PACT, sophomores had strong feelings about the changes they would like to see in the test.
According to Yvonne Barazi, "They should have split it into
two separate tests, or at least had five minute breaks between each part." Elizabeth Holden added, " They should
consider that just sophomores are taking the test and not
make some of the areas, such as the science, so difficult."
Marc Slutzky echoed the sentiments of many sophomores
when he said, ''They should eliminate the 'personality' questions, wh ich are pointless." Nevertheless, as juniors, these
same students must face this challenge again, but then the
test will really count.

Days Of Glory
Sophomore Lule Jusufi breaks a smile when she realizes her mistake and
corrects it for a perfect A!
Jimmy Johnson squirms in his seat anxiously watching
the clock in anticipation of one thing - the weekend. A
t ime for rest and relaxation, the weekend serves as two
days of cherished freedom from the everyday drudgeries
of school. Many students believe they can only survive
five consecutive school days by knowing that they are
sandwiched between the crusts of life. According to Junior Niki Antonakos, "On every Monday morning, I begin
the countdown to the weekend. Being in school five days
out of seven, those two free days are absolute paradise."
Actually, the school week consists of only three days:
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Monday, also known
as the day after the weekend, can be better described as
a day of gloom, made bearable by remembrance of the
days before. Offsetting the gloom of Monday and somehow balancing it, comes Friday. Also recognized as the
day before the weekend, Friday means a day of cheerful
anticipation for the days to come.
Generally, the weekend serves as a time to indulge in
the advantages of going to sleep late and waking up a half
day later than usual. The other half day provides time to
ponder idle thoughts or catch-up on homework neglected
throughout the week. Frequently, students find themselves glancing at the clock and calculating what class
they are missing at the moment.
For most student, the escape of the weekend can't
come soon enough, or last long enough. Every time the
tension of school overwhelms students who think they
can't go on, the knowledge that a weekend will come
gives them the strength needed to survive.

�Sophs Get New Respect
After surviving the grueling journey through freshman
year, the sophomores find themselves in possession of a
new status. Instead of occupying the lowest rank in the
school, they have gained control of the low-but-higher-thanfreshmen status. Consequently they can walk confidently
through the halls, knowing no one will mutter "freshmen "
behind their back and get away with it. The sophomores also
receive the privilege of cutting in front of the freshmen in
the lunch line.
At the "Freshmen-Sophomore Mixer," a social given to
welcome freshmen, the sophomores like to try out their
newfound "sophomoric powers" and practice being able to
push the freshmen around after having been the "pushees."
Aside from the mixer, other events and activities let the
sophomores show their true colors. At pep assemblies, the
sophomores join forces with the juniors and seniors in
chanting "go home freshmen," and during Homecoming
week the sophomores readily challenge any class to one of
the games held during lunch mods because their school
spirit has increased 100% since the year before.
Even though the sophomores have to respect their elders, the juniors and seniors, they earn respect and flaunt
their new status by playfully teasing the freshmen.
A group of freshmen take a needed
break at the Frosh-Soph mixer. The
courtyard was made available to
students who needed a place to
take rest from the dance floor.

�Everlasting Legends
Flinging pennies at freshmen .... the marketing of ''official" freshmen elevator passes .... thrusting freshmen into
lockers .... or .... perhaps starting rumors about prominent teachers.
These fascinating legends lurked in the halls of Niles West
throughout the year. Passed from generation to the next,
with new ones created every year. these myths appear
indestructable. Seniors employed these myths to frighten
underclassmen and prepare them for the years ahead. To
upperclassmen, these myths provided something to look
forward to and brought humor into the class when these
tales appeared to have some truth.
Junior Beatrise Revelins, on her experiences as a freshman, commented, "I knew they were totally false because
students of previous graduating classes told me the truth."
Many times these myths appeared fabricated and ridiculous in the cold light of reality. Originated in spite or just out
of humor, they still prove popular among students. Making
up a new tale, while explaining how they originated, junior
Donna Wezio explains, "I think it was provoked by Nancy
Reagan .. . . No .... perhaps Satan .... then it just became ·
convenient. Isn't that special?"
In any case, for the future arrivals to Niles West these
myths continue to be a tradition. So ... underclassmen,
watch out! ... Because of the uncertainty about the truth of
these legends, you'd better play it safe and believe them!

A True Friendship
Friendship means a learning,
A sharing between two,
A keeping of old feelings,
And making room for new.
To keep a friendship solid ,
Certain standards ar e a must:
Not having to say sorry
And never breaking trust.
When we need encouragement,
Or just someone there
Friends sympathize with feelings,
They listen and really care.
Problems, troubles, and sorrow,
If we want a helping hand
Friends are always there when needed
They guide and understand.
We must treasure closeness
And never break strong ties
The friendship that we speak of,
Is one that never dies.

Manic Monday
After a hectic weekend of going to parties and staying up
all night comes the most feared and t iresome event of the
week, Monday morning. At 7:30, students return to the
tedious world of school work and exams. In homeroom,
probably the hardest part of the day to face because it's so
early, students struggle to listen to the daily announcements half awake. Students still hear their ears ringing from
the concert they attended Saturday night. "I'm lucky if I get
to my classes on time on Monday mornings. When I do I end
up falling asleep," states junior Danielle Singer.
As lunch time approaches, students view the new week
with more optimism because the day is half through. ''I look
forward to lunch on Mondays because it gives me a much
needed break," says Senior Ann Valenti. As the difficult
challenge of surviving Mondays comes to an end at 2:40
many students have defeated the ever-so dreaded Monday
morning blues.
Sophomore Dana Mohrlein attempts to c<)flcentrate on school work after a
fun-filled weekend . Monday mornings are usually extremely hectic days .

�Discipline Shock
"You're busted." Whether they liked it or not, many
freshmen, unaccustomed to much discipline at their junior
highs, may very well have been greeted with this statement
within only a few weeks of their entering school. Freshmen
most often complained about the lack of the benefit of the
doubt extended to them by teachers when they lacked
knowledge of the rules. Junior Scott Toban stated, "During
one of the first weeks of school, I arrived a minute late.
Thinking that late is late, I stopped at my locker before going
to homeroom. When I showed up, I couldn't believe I had
been given a detention for being over five minutes late."
Regarding the intensity of change between junior high and
high school rules, Mr. Zorn stated, "I teach eighth grade in
my spare time, and I am often forced to remind my students
that they had better prepare themselves for the transition
to high school. Their behavior is often far below par." Certainly some pains must have been taken by freshmen to
adjust their habits to high school rules.
The problem of adjustment to the detention, mods, and
closed hall system for freshmen was universal, yet hardly
serious. More than anything else the change requires the
student to adapt himself to a new and more demanding set
of regulations, definitely an educational experience of sorts.
Consequently, students should not have look upon this experience as something awful, but rather as an initiation into
high school.
Exchanging notes for Geometry class are sophomores Jin Kim and Steve
Rudin. Students often turn to friends for extra help.

Freshmen
Dozens after dozens of ;
frightened. yet eager freshman faces scanned the unfamiliar hallways of Niles West.
Incoming students were confronted with new faces. unaccustomed sounds. and a
terrible case of the "high 1
school Jitters ...
The very first thing that
freshmen learned in high ;
school was that 1t 1s an en- '
tirely different experience
from their grammar school
years. More homework was I
one of the many changes
they discovered . Students ;
now had to set aside more 1
time for homework and ·
studying . An increased effort
was found to be a necessity•
for ac <i rlemir success.
Freshmen also found it d1ff1cult to adapt to a larger
school. Happenings such as
sporting events. school
plays. and of course . the
: Freshman-Sophomore Mixer
. helped students to break the
ice and meet new people.
As the year progressed .
freshmen found themselves
feeling more c omfortable
with the school environment
rather than feeling pressured by 1t. Many close and
· intimate friendships developed among students . and
previous fears disappeared.
Freshmen became accustomed to a new way of life .
and the "high school Jitters "
slowly faded away .
Gym classes are an entirely different experience for freshmen compared to
the gym classes offered at their junior highs. A freshman student finds the
equipment in the gymnastics room to be rather entertaining.
The Frosh-Soph Mixer provides students with their first taste of high school
dances. Many intimate friendships develop that are sure to last throughout high
school.

�On The Line
For the fifth time that
evening, the telephone rang
and Suzy Ayerhead leaped
up to answer it. Like the rest
of the calls t hat night. it
came from one of her
friends calli ng to make plans
for the forthcoming weekend, compare homework, or
just gossip.
Many students like Suzy
employed t he telephone to
enhance both their social
and academic lives. "Nearly
every night, I talked on the
phone about school, work,
and various subjects,"
claimed Jeannine DiModica.
Calling a classmate on the
phone remai ned a convenient way to obtain help with
homework. Marla Schrager
added , "When I didn't understand my assignment. I
usually called one of my
friends, and they were able
to teach me over the
phone. "
While many teenagers
used the phone exclusively
for their own needs, many
employed it for emergency
purposes. When running
late, students found the
phone a great way t o notify
parents that they wouldn 't
be arriving on time for their
dinner or curfew. Because
underclassmen lacked driver's licenses, they often
needed to call home to ensure a ride from after school
activities.
Since its invention in
1876, by Alexander Graham
Bell, the telephone has become a vital part of many
lives. Because of the
phone's convenience and
easy access, many students
relied upon it for personal,
academic, and emergency
purposes. By using the
phone, communication was
as simple as pushing seven
buttons.

�Moving To The
Top
Clothing fashions, cars, and hairstyles change from year to year, unlike
the ways of freshmen and sophomores.
The freshies , young people with an
expanding set of values, rules, and responsibilities, now become part of
something entirely new, high school.
High school seems so appealing and
different from grammar school, and
the academics and new friendships become more exciting. The mysteries of
algebra reveal themselves problem by
problem , and English class explores
the family feuds in Romeo and Juliet.
The sophomores, a more mature
group of underclassmen , begin approaching new experiences, such as
geometry and other sophomore level
classes. With their new status of "nonfreshmen, " they begin to walk down
the halls with their heads held high.
The worries of pennies being thrown
their way no longer exist, for soon they
will reach the title of "Upperclassmen. "
The freshmen and sophomores learn
and mature, growing physically and
mentally during the years of being an
"Underclassmen" on their way to
earning the prized designation of "Upperclassmen.''
Freshman year is usually a time of meeting people and creating new friendships. Sophomore
Mara Okmin and freshman Vince Romano take a
brief moment to discuss their plans for the weekend.

Revisions Appear, Again And
Again
Every year students at Niles West
find that their Student Guildbook has
become more confusing and conta ins
more senseless rules than the previous
year. Invariably, the revised policies
and student behavior seem longer and
much more severe. Inappropriate behavior, dress codes, parking regulations, off campus rules, and grounds
for detention are always revised when
students receive a new edition of the
guidebook. "I don't think it's fair to
give a student a Saturday detention
simply because he/she doesn't carry
his l.D.," stated Luey DiCeasar.
Most students agree that rules remain necessary, but should be enforced less severely. "Getting a detention for walking in the door after 7:30
a.m. just isn't fair," pouted Toni DiModica.
Students would much rather prefer
rules that were made by class-elected
representatives to assure fairer treatment. Sophomore Matt Toarmina declared, "Students should make their
own rules if they decide to follow any at
all."
Extra help from a teacher is often required when
students have difficulties with school work.

Forgotten Memories
On a cold, icy-gray morning, the fatigued students of
Niles West entered the building, prepared for yet another seven hour day. With
eyelids half shut. still groggy
from sleep (or lack of it), and
tired of being dragged out of
bed before the sun even
rises, they endured the
years at West.
But being in school wasn't
as dreadful as it may have
seemed. Amidst the term
papers and constant exams,
the happy memories sometimes got pushed aside and
forgotten. Those treasured
moments of binding friendships, footba l l games,
school activities, and intellectually stimulating classes,
often became overlooked.
People's lives were too chaotic and hectic to take time
out for joyous recollections.
But while students pounded
chemica l formu las and historical events into their
minds, they also left a little
space to save a few good
memories for the future.
Take heed. One chilling,
gray day in the future, when
high school has long since
passed , a former Niles West
student sitting on a park
bench feeding pigeons may
remember those four years
spent in high school. He
won't recall the early mornings or homework overload,
but instead the memories of
good times and friendships.
What is the happy grin for??? Freshman Elliott Malkin is glad to know that
he has become the first and only male member of the Wrestlettes!

Delightful Disturbances
RNR-RNR-RNR-RNR. The fire alarm
sounds as NiWeHi students, taken by
surprise, rush out the doors. Whether
in the midst of a stimulating lecture or
eating lunch, students always respond
the same way. They fi le out the doors,
wondering about the cause of the disruption.
Fire drills teach students how to respond in an emergency. In case of a
real fi re or bomb threat, knowing how
to act could save many lives. While the
classroom learning process may be
halted, the emergency knowledge
gained is indispensable. Sometimes,
however, students pull the alarm as a

prank, needlessly causing much extra
expense to the school and disrupting
school progress. No matter whether
the alarm is genuine or fa lse, the firemen can be counted on to show up and
the school must pay.
In good weather, fire drills may serve
as a time and place for students to
socialize and enjoy the fresh air. On the
other hand , in rainy or snowy weather,
students would rather avoid them.
Christina Gabriel summed up the attitude of most students about fire
alarms, saying, " My feelings about
them depend on what class I miss. ''

The Latest Styles
Fashions come and fashions go,
From season to season, you never know.
Niles West students sure seem to try,
From bleached out jeans to brilliant tie dye.
Passing through the halls, they display their
duds,
Wearing shirts and jeans with rhinestone
studs.
Overalls, Polo shirts, button downs, sweats,
Generra, Complements, 501 's, Guess.
With creativity the goal in the fashion game,
Seldom do two outfits look the same .
Some buy designer wear, others create their
own ,
Imports straight from Italy, or T-shirts made
at home.
The ever-changing list persists for miles.
Take a trip to NiWeHi for the latest styles!
When entering high school, freshmen found a vast amount of sports, clubs, and other activities to

Destinations vary, but fun is guaranteed. Many students look forward to
their late December winter vacation
and April spring break because they
plan trips to exotic, exciting places.
Whether headed for the beach or the
ski slopes, students enjoy these two
breaks from the daily routine. " I just
can't wait; it's time for a break, and I
haven't been to California for so many
years," said sophomore Jakie Katzman anticipating her winter vacation .

Breaks give students a chance to reward themselves for the work they
have completed and to relax and prepare for the weeks ahead.

100 pints of blood was
reached with ease as donors
eagerly swarmed the Oakton Lobby to give blood .
Most of the donors were
senior students, but anyone
fitting the age, weight, and
health requirements was
permitted to give blood.
··1 was pleasantly surprised to find out how easy it
was to give blood. And contrary to what I thought, I felt
fine afterwards, " said Mrs.
Horwitz of the blood draining process. Donating a pint
of blood was a small part of
her contribution toward the
success of the Blood Drive.
Mrs. Horwitz along with Mr.
Boevers was involved with
organizing the Blood Drive.
By the end of the day, not
only was the sponsor's goal
fulfilled , but the donors
themselves felt a sense of
a ccomplishment. Life

thanks to those who gave
blood with twinkies and pins
declaring each as a humanitarian for the day. Spanish
teacher Mr. Murphy shared
his feeling, " It's a wonderful

For one night in the year,
West served as the center of
all excitement in the Chicagoland area. Cars jammed
the school lots, and people
packed the hallways, while
helicopters landed on the
front lawn. Parents and students were not enjoying a
night's entertainment, but
rather were participating in
a rare opportunity to find
out about colleges and universities across the nation.

College Night
For the diverse needs of
the students, College Night
offered over 300 choices for
post-high school planning,
the largest such representation Niles Township has presented. These alternatives
included nationally revered
schools, state schools,
schools for the Arts, private
schools, and religiously oriented schools. Programs
were also presented by the
Armed Forces, the Paris
American Academy from
France, and our own Oakton
Community College.
Happy with the program
of College Night, Junior
Lenny Katz said, "I thought
College Night was a great
success from the standpoints of the overwhelming
amount of universities attending, and the great
amount of families who
benefitted extremely. However, I thought it should
have lasted longer."
Junior Shirley Choi
summed-up the value of College Night. " It's good, because you get a chance to
talk to the college representatives. I like that the school
did this, because I got to
know about colleges I didn't
know about, and for those
that I had in mind, I was able
to find out the requirements."

thing in common must all be in homeroom by

run, the third tardy usually
means a detention.
The freshman dream is to
drive to school senior year,
leaving the house five minutes before school starts.
This happy thought is all that
gets them through those
long, cold winter mornings
waiting for the bus. Did you
ever wonder, though, about
why those seniors often
drive up before the buses
even arrive? No, they aren't
crazy. It's that mad competition for a parking space.
Only a sadder but wiser senior can tell you the horrors
of trying to run from the far
end of the parking lot to
homeroom in two minutes.
Maybe after an experience
like that you freshmen
wouldn't leave the house
five minutes before school
starts, either. Still, many
seniors would die without
their cars.
Though driving is the preferred way to go, many other means of transportation
exist. Some students live
close by. Others can't get
the family car and would die
before taking the bus. In either case, students may
choose to walk to school every day, and the bicycle
racks are often full. Those
affluent students whose parents approve may even ride
a scooter to school.
When all else fails, students still shouldn't give up
hope. They can often count
on parents for a last minute
ride in an emergency. Still,
to all who dream of driving
up in a Lamborghini or a
Porsche, dream on: you never know when your dreams
may come true!

students and the community
as all anticipated the big
game.

As couples filed in for the
final Homecoming activity,
they saw a gym transformed
into a grand ballroom. Ball
masks and brightly colored
steamers lined the walls to
complete the ballroom
theme.
Some couples boogied to
the beat of "Adventures in
Dining", while others waited
in line to have a photographer take a memorable por-
trait of them. While the band
took their break, the couples
chatted about dinner plans,
carriage rides, and romantic
prospects for the evening.
Others took advantage of
the hors d' oeuvres table,
which consisted of carrot
sticks, vegetable dip, and
miniature club sandwiches.
Returning to the edge of
the dance floor, the couples
watched as the Queen, Joy
Grossberg and King, Anthony lrpino danced to the
theme from "Dirty Dancing"
marking the highlight of the
evening.
In addition to upperclassmen, many freshman and
sophomores attended the
festivities. One underclassman, Stephanie Israel, exclaimed, " If all the dances at
Niles West are this great, I'm
in for an exciting four
years! "
As the ball neared its end,
couples gathered their belongings, found their friends,
said their goodbyes, and
headed for an equally exciting night on the town!

Kevin Steele rehearses for the musical "Bye-Bye Birdie" after school.
Many long hours were put in to make the show a success.
A ''Good Time'' Production Returns
When "Bye-Bye Birdie"
first hit the Broadway scene
in the early 1960's, the nation greeted the show as a
"good time" production
with cheerful songs and an
energetic cast that would
keep a smile on one's face
until the night was over.
Now. some twenty-seven
years later, Conrad Birdie
and the town of Sweet Apple, Ohio have been reborn
on the Niles West stage as
the premiere production of
the school year.
The musical opens with
Birdie, senior Matthew
Winer, a rock star modeled
after the late Elvis Presley,
being drafted into the army.
Upon hearing this, the millions of female teenagers
who love this man with a
passion prepare to secede
from the Union. Albert Peterson (originally to be
played by junior Carl Helwing, whos unfortunate illness
resulted in director Arthur
Tiersky's takeover of the
role) , Birdie's songwriter
who practically survives on
his star's career, does not
know how to handle the
drafting situation either. His
faithful secretary, Rose Alvarez (senior Lisa Lasowski)
comes up with a plan to send
Birdie away happily while
still in the hearts of girls everywhere. Birdie will perform Albert's latest song,
"One Last Kiss," on the Ed
Sullivan Show the night before he leaves for the army.
When he is finished singing
he will plant one final kiss on
the lips of Kim Macafee,
(senior Joy Grossberg) cho-
sen at random from a selection of Birdie's greatest fans.
Along the way, the characters experience fights, disagreements, and hilarious
misunderstandings that lead
to the happy ending. Major
cast members also included
junior Kirsten Gieler as Albert's obnoxiously domineering mother; juniors David
Lieb and Amy Flack as Kim's
conservative parents; senior
Wendy Doyle as Kim's sister;
and junior Yuri Keegstra as
Hugo Peabody, the jealous
boyfriend.
For the third year in a row,
the student steering committee chosen to direct this
annual production decided
to perform a pre-written
show rather than an original
story. Stated senior director
Arthur Tiersky, "The shows
chosen for this production in
the last two years have required an amount of thinking
about strange underlying
morals. This year, we all
wanted a change, and 'ByeBye Birdie,' one of my alltime favorite shows, was my
first choice all along."
Fun and games didn't occur all the time, however.
Everyone on the committee
believed that they cast roles
extremely well, but when
lead Carl Helwing had to
back out, many thought disaster might strike. Senior
co-orchestral director Joel
Dalinka related , " The last
few weeks of rehearsal, I
was scared that the show
might not come together as
well as past shows have; I
am elated that I have been
proven wrong!"

�Back To School
One Wednesday evening,
October 28, at approximately 7:30 p.m. , it happened
again. School commenced
for the second time that
day, but not for the students. Hundreds of parents
of Niles West students
swarmed the hallways to endure the obstacle course of
their child 's schedule. That
night was the 30th annual
Open House.
Open House gave parents
the opportunity to personally meet and talk to their
child's teachers. During
each shortened class, parents listened to short lectures on the course curricu-
lum and content. Curious
parents could ask questions
about the student's progress in the class or about
the class itself.
Unlike students, parents
didn't have to attend study
halls and physical education
classes. Instead they walked
aimlessly around the school
peeping in rooms or proceeding to the cafeteria for
refreshments and observing
displays. Student representatives of numerous clubs
such as sports teams, special interest clubs and student government anxiously
waited to answer parents'
questions. In addition to
Counselor Tom Meyer talks with a parent during the Open House. The Niles
West faculty was on hand to answer any questions. and keep the night
running smoothly.

Halloween
�Haunted Hallways
Ghosts and goblins float
down the hallway while other students walk in everyday
attire. "Halloween comes
but once a year and I enjoy
dressing up", said Senior
Ross Fischoff who has been
a dedicated Halloweener for
four years. Many students
enjoy dressing up, but "the
students who don't dress up
are the ones who miss out".
stated Senior Brad Carstens. Many of the students
who do dress up in cos-
tumes, trick-or-treat during
the day, while others tricker-treat well into the night.
After school, students prepare for the night time festivities. Costume parties,
the most popular type of
party on Halloween, require
a lot of work. Lots of time
also goes into the costumes
which may need hours of
sewing and face painting.
" Bombing" , another favorite activity of some students, requires a heavy
stock of eggs, shaving
cream, and toilet paper
since to achieve the objective of "bombing" one must
smother others with these
materials without becoming
a victim first.
Is Halloween really scary?
Many students would deny
that they are afraid , but they
won't be seen crossing the
path of a black cat, visiting a
graveyard, or trick-or-treating past midnight.
\
Showing real school spirit, an unknown NiWe Student parades around school on Halloween. There were a variety of
costumes displayed on October 31st.

�Prisoners of the wicked witch in her gingerbread house are Hansel and
Gretel, played by Adam Telengater and Laila Stein.
Fairy Tale Delights Audience
"Don't trust strangers," is
the archetypal theme of the
children's theater presentation , "Hansel and Gretel."
This classic story of two
lost young children, who
come across a gingerbread
house in the woods and end
up prisoners of a wicked
witch, succeeded greatly,
bringing in full houses for the
two afternoon performances
and a half-full house for the
Saturday show. Students
from thirty-five schools
came to see the show during
the day-time showings.
148
Children's Theater
The enthusiastic cast,
headed by skillful direction
of Cynthia Philbin, consisted
of sophomore Adam Telengater as Hansel, junior Laila
Stein as Gretel, and sophomore Jennifer Collins as the
Witch. Other cast members
included freshmen Barbara
Bouboutsis, Julie Doyle. Kelly Hogan, Davita Levin and
Kim Lowenthal, sophomore
Karen Guthrie, junior Carl
Helwing, and senior Wendy
Doyle.
Describing the difficulties
and pleasures of performing
for young children, Telengater commented, "You
have to capture them, which
I think we did in the first few
scenes. Then they really respond well. " Sophomore
Jennifer Collins shared the
delight. "Working with kids
was really fun; it was great to
see how they reacted."
Before the show began. an
innovative skit. called Etiskit,
performed by Katy Born,
Joel Dalinka, Joy Grossberg,
Lisa Lasowski, Matthew
Winer, and Arthur Tiersky,
who also wrote and directed
the piece, received rave reviews. Etiskit showed the
young children in the audience how they should behave during the performance talking about gum
chewing, applause, and
when to get up during the
show.
According to enthusiastic
audience member sophomore Nicoletta Harris, "The
scenery was magnificent,
the singing was superb, and
the audience was truly involved."

West Groups Perform At Fiesta Bowl.
"Attend Hut! . .. , .. . GO!.
Parade Rest! ... , ... UGH! "
No, this is not about going to
the army, but about being a
member in the marching
band. The marching band,
directed by William Koch, diligently worked on their
marching techniques from
the hot. scorching days of
August to the cool, shivering
nights of October, in order
to prepare a show that was
to be watched by millions.
The occasion, the "Sunkist
Fiesta Bowl Parade."
Last May, the band accepted their invitation to
play in the Fiesta Bowl, in
Phoenix, Arizona on New
Year's Day , 1988. Many
hours were put into making
this tour a success. All of the
fundraising, arranged by
Mrs. Fern Katz. had to be fin-
ished by December 1, 1987,
and early deadline which
meant everyone had to work
fast.
Also attending the festivities were the colorguard,
pom-pon, and cheerleading
squads. All of this adding up
to one of the largest and
most expensive tours ever
held. But. not to fear. As for
the money. the band was
lucky to once again have the
support of Mrs. Fern Katz.
With her complete dedication to the band , she was
able to help students nearly
split in half the original cost,
from $570 per person to
$275 per person. She overall helped the students to
raise a total of $45,000. But,
the money was just one of
the main concerns. Now, the
numerous hours had to be
spent on perfecting music,
marching in step, and looking their best. This was accomplished under the direction of Mr. Koch and his wife,
who was also the Colorguard
instructor.
The tour took place from
December 28th and continued into New Year until the
third of January. Due to the
inclement weather on Monday. the students were
forced to fly out of Chicago
the following morning. The
band lost many hours of
practice time due to the delay, but spirits were kept up.
They arrived in Phoenix that
Tuesday afternoon and everyone was anxious to get
started. "We missed about
fifteen hours of rehearsal ,
but that only made us work
twice as hard in the short-
ened time that was given to
us, stated clarinet player
Suzy Bohigan.
The four mile parade
down Central Avenue excited everyone. "When I saw
the people along the sides of
the streets. it was in serious
numbers, like 300,000 people. We're used to marching
down Oakton Street where
people are there because
they just happen to be,"
commented another clarinet player David Steiner.
This recognition and success
has brought a smile not only
to the band, but to the members of the community. "It
was great to see everyone

�Spanish Club Visits. Day Care Center
The Casa Central Day
Care Center was filled with
Niles West students as well
as little children one December afternoon. No, the
students did not need supervision or parental guidance,
but they did feel the need to
spread some holiday cheer.
The day care center had
been visited by the Spanish
Club for a number of years,
and this year's club did not
end the tradition. Sponsored
by Mrs. Georgiev and Miss
O'Reilley, the Spanish Club
trekked to Casa Central with
about a dozen of its members. Careful planning went
into the afternoon's schedule, filled with all the old
games learned in fourth
grade . The bunny hop, for
example, progressed almost
to perfection, but its tricky
footwork caused the students and friends some
problems. A miniature play

to the children. Junior Randy Feldman concluded ,

The show differed from
past years in that it contained a special number for
the twelve senior members
leaving the company. Sponsor Gretchen Glader voiced
regrets about have a senior
dance, saying, "I can't stand
seeing all the dancers I' ll be

time."
Finally, the dancers each
took their bows to the tune
of "Dancing in the Street",

Banks Praises King
When one envisions a man
who fought for the equality
and freedom of all people,
Martin Luther King immediately comes to mind. No
other man is so universally
known as the crusader of
justice. King spent much of
his life promoting the welfare of his people and the
rights of all those whose
rights had been ignored. Unfortunately, few of his accomplishments were recog-
nized until after his death.
On January fifteenth, West
held an assembly honoring
King. The guest speaker, Dr.
Lacy Banks, gave an eloquent address describing
Martin Luther King as the
true king, one who contributed greatly to the cause of
his people. Unlike other
kings who have come and
gone, Martin Luther King
made a difference in the
lives of those who followed
him. He gave his life fighting
for a cause he believed in.
Having helped his people,
King died a satisfied man.
Dr. Banks advised students to devote a few moments thinking about King's
accomplishments in the field
of human rights. Students
left the assembly feeling love
towards all of mankind and
respect for a great man Dr. Martin Luther King.

�Varsity Discovers Sufficient System
Transition describes the
varsity gridders, and one of
the biggest transitions from
last year occured from offense to defense. Eleven
fresh players entered the
field as the platoon system
hit Niles West. The new .system gave the team twentytwo starters, eleven on offense and eleven on defense. Coach Richardson
employed the platoon to
keep players from tiring out,
while allowing more partici-
pation . The system also allowed injured players to be
more easily replaced , with
specialists at every position.
The varsity squad adapted
to the system well, despite
early losses to state powerhouses New Trier and Evanston. The Indians put it together in game three with a
solid victory over Maine
East, 26-13.
Although the Indians encountered other rough
losses, including Homecom-
ing, the team remained
hopeful and played to the final minute. With more players coming out in the summer, the platoon system will
give the football program a
great boost. Each year the
presence of more returning
players with varsity experience and a greater number
of students playing will result
in a powerful Indian squad
for years to come.

Tough Season

Most students know volleyball as just a game to play
on the beach or at a picnic,
but for the girls who make
up the Niles West Volleyball
Team, volleyball holds the ti tle of most important sport.
The Niles West Varsity Volleyba 11 Team struggled
through a tough season with
a six and thirteen record , despite the fact that co-captains Sarah Kim and Karin
Janessa and members Kim
McAllister, Sandy Stergious
and Kelli Lochner returned
from the previous season
with hopes of a good year.
"During the early and midseason we didn't play well
and had trouble getting motivated, but towards the end
of the season we started to
play up to our potential. "
commented Kim McAllister.
Victories over Niles North at
home on cable, close games
with Deerfield, beating St.
Scholastica in the regionals,
and having a great final
game against Evanston highlighted the season for the
team .
Coach Paula Sfickas stated "Although the team record may not show we had a
successful season, the progress and teamwork showed
by the team made it a winning season for me. " According to Sfickas, next
years team should be stronger with the help of more experienced players coming to

Kickers' Spirit
Never Lost
Kicking off the soccer season with four returning starters led Coach Brennan to
have an optimistic outlook
for the season. The team began to practice in August
and continued the who le
season.
The Indi ans' first and
toughest competition was in
the Zeedyk Tournament
which found them facing the
best teams in t he Chicagoland area. Although the Indians lost to Hoffman Estates
2-0, and Gordon Tech 4-2,
the Indians cha llenged every
team by putting pressure on
them the entire game.
According to Coach Brennan, " We were always in every game, yet a step behind
at the final buzzer. The reason is our players do not
start playing soccer until
high school, while other
180
Soccer
areas begin at an earlier
age."
A new addition to the
coach ing staff this year was
Coach Melnick, who in his
earlier years played soccer
for the Indians. He was a real
asset to the team by preparing them for the games.
Two senior soccer players
related their opinions about
why t he team had not realized its goals this year. As
John Puljic stated, " We had
a lot of individual talent but it
did not come together as a
unit." Ray Castro added,
"One of our major problems
was lack of communication
on the field and not enough
movement. ' '
One thing was for sure:
win, loose, or tie, the soccer
team played each game with
spirit and always tried to put
their best "foot" forward.

�Surpassing
Swimmers' Success
From the hot summer
mornings of August, to the
cool windy evenings of November , the girls' swim
team took charge of their
season.
Though there might not
have been a powerful girls'
swim team these last few
years, this fall a handful! of
individuals proved the season a worthwhi le one.
Key swimmers for the Indians included senior varsity
capta in Wendy Martin who,
despite her bad shoulder,
pulled through the season in
the 200 Medley relay, 100
Fly, and 200 l.M. Senior
Mary Theodore, also a main
swimmer, took good care of
the 200 yard free and 500
yard free. Junior Patty
Tzortzis excelled considerably by switching over to the
sprints. "I'm very happy
that coach Lucas agreed to
put me in the freestyle
sprints. The 200 yard free
and the 500 yard free
seemed to be a little bit too
long for me. As I've been told
by coach Lucas time after
time, when they make up a
150 yard freestyle event, I 'II
be the first to sign up, until
then, I'm going to stick with
anchoring the Medley relay,
and swimming the 50 yard
and 100 yard free."
Two key swimmers were
newcomers this year. Niles
North transfer Miki Vucic, a
junior, .earned many points
for the · Indians in the 200
Medley relay, 200 Individual
Medley, and the 100 Fly.
Sophomore Jessica Western
also gave the team an extra
boost in the 200 Medley relay and the 100 breastroke.
Practices were led by assi·stant coach Jodi Nebbia,
who made sure everyone
182
Girl"s Swimming
started by 3:00 p.m. Practice usually consisted of a
warm up, some sprints, long
distance, and a cool down,
which roughly averaged to
5000 yards a day. "Since
our yardage has slightly increased from last year, I feel
that it has given the team an
extra push towards the winning way," stated sophomore Joan Jovero. Jovero
helped considerably in the
200 yard and 500 yard
freestyle, and is a second
year member of the varsity
team. She concluded, "I feel
our team was better organized due mostly to our
coaches and to our three
outstanding captains, seniors Wendy Martin, Mary
Theodore, and junior Marny
Pierini. They helped make
sure our practices were always challenging, enjoyable,
and most importantly,
worthwhile.
Diving coach Louis Torrez
once again proved to have a
successfu l season with his
divers. Return ing to the
team were juniors Marnie
Malnekoff and Annette Polek. Senior Dawn Jacobs, the
diving team's newest addition, helped the team not
only with her outstanding
performance, but also with
her encouraging spirft. One
diver to look out for in the
upcoming seasons will be
freshman Nicki Gardner.
Gardner competed both
on the varsity level and the
junior varsity level. Overall,
the swimming team and diving team have been breaking
barriers in all of their set
goals. They hope to keep up
the number of swimmers
and plan to take charge
again, next September .

only is Rosen a speedster in cross
country, but he also participates in
track.
In the lead, Steve Rosen finally
made his way. A good pace, a good
pair of running shoes, and a lot of
suffering put him in front.
Accelerated
Abilities
The cross country season
got off to a slow start but
gradually stabilized. In the
pre-season, three members
quit, ruining an almost definite conference title. But
due to hard work and dedication, the team pulled together and did their best.
Led by junior Marty Bach
and senior Steve Rosen the
team placed much higher in
meets than expected. At
conference time, Bach had
run 15: 19 for three miles,
making him the favorite for
first place. Bach ended up
second after giving his all.
Ro sen was expected to
place in the top seven to be
all conference , and ended up
with a ninth place finish.
In the summer, the team
started working double practices along with running road
runs to prepare for the season. With the help of other
runners including senior Bryan Mittleman and juniors
Ken Smith , Tim Hieber, and
Keith McMath, the team
held it's own.
The freshman and sophomore teams were led by Brian Moreth and Oscar Palacios. Both runners led their
teams on to wins and were
occasionally moved up to
the varsity or sophomore
levels.
With wind blowing through their hair, toes pointed in the air, and time
running, Brian Morreth and his opponents try to out run one another.
Morreth's superior skills come through again as he wins the race.

Runners are a unique
breed because of tough
training and intense competition. To be the best, a runner must develop her stamin a until everyone else
breathes in her dust. The
Girls' Cross Country Team
realizes this, and they act on
it. To get in running shape,
they do different types of
workouts and run 5 to 7
miles a day. Their 5-1 conference record and 13-1 record in duel meets illustrate
their dedication and ability.
Of all of Niles West's fall Varsity Teams, Girls' Cross
Country boasts the best record.
Coach Judy Sloan summarized the teams efforts,
"Our team was smaller this
year, because a lot of the
kids that came last year
dropped-out. Considering
this, we 've had a wonderful
year. The JV and Freshmen
were fantastic. We won
meets, and we did 100%
better than I thought we
would."
Despite the energy and
force that Girls' Cross Country exemplified during the
season, "West Word" failed
to acknowledge the magnitude of their success. Although disappointed by the
lack of coverage by the
newspaper, the girls rea lized
that they were running for
themselves, and not for
fame or praise.
For Debbie Pozdol, running makes her feel great.
''Cross Country is like a
team spirit, even though you
run individually." Halina
Orawiec added, "We feel like
a family. It's exciting!"
Mrs. Sloan pointed a picture of the girls in Cross
Country. " It's easy to quit,
but I'm proud of the girls
who stayed. I wish more kids
would join and see how talented they are, because it
rea lly is a great sport."
Two members of the Girls Cross Country Team travel smoothly down the
final road to the awaiting finish line. Even though some races last only ten
minutes, they sometimes seem to last hours.

�Back Again!
Taking to the courts for
the first time in four years,
the 1986-1987 Junior Varsity Tennis Team began the
season by acing Niles North,
Waukegan East, St. Viator
and Maine South. The Indians maintained an even record in conference play 4-4.
Senior players Debbie Berman, Sabina Puthuseril,
Meena Revella and Sue
Chung brought experience
to the court.
During the season , the Indians hosted an invitational
tournament which included
Deerfield and Highland Park.
The Indian players finished
third and fourth in this tournament.
Team Captain Debbie Berman thought she would have
been a more qualified player
if Niles West had had a Varsity tennis team during her
underclass years. She would
have had a goal to aim for.
According to Nancy Penn,
next year's capta in , "The
team played hard, never
gave up and looks forward to
a great year."
Coach Len Winans feels
encouraged by the return of
seven out of ten starters
next year. He feels the team
still lacks the depth to win it
all ; however, the ability to
beat many teams seems on
the horizon.
With full extent of the arm, Nancy Penn strikes back with a powerful

The boys wrestling season
ended in spectacular· fashion. They posted another
winning season record of 202. The varsity team also captured the conference and regional titles winning the 16
Team Glenbrook South Invite and taking second place
in the Leyden Tournament.
The Indians also claimed
four regional champions:
John Lee , 105; Greg Rudin,

Mike Gershbein, 167; and
Mike Nauman , 155; Brett
Youstra, 145; and George
Santillian, 132, placed third.
At the teams sectional at
Leydan, the Indians fell
short of the State Tournament, losing to the sixth
ranked Lake Park Lancers,
by the slightest of margins.
Rudin, Lee, and D'Agostino
advanced to the IHSA state
tournament held in Champaign, Illinois. As a junior,
Rudin had placed fourth in
the State Tournament, but,
in his Senior year he missed
a good portion of the season
battling mononucleosis.
Eventually he recovered and
took third place in the State
Finals. Senior ·Preston Clark
stated, "We all worked hard
and achieved the goals that
we set forth." Sophomore
Coach Bob Porter summed
up the season with a final
word, "It was a great season, we had 9 out of 12
wrestlers selected for allconference, it was a whole
team effort."

teams won their eighth conference title in nine years.
Although the JV team didn't
receive nearly as much
credit as the Varsity, much
of the Varsity's success was
due to an excellent JV program.
Grueling practices with
Varsity and utilization of all
age levels contributed to the
success of this crew of JV
wrestlers. Despite the JV's
constantly changing lineup,
the nucleus of the boys included Nasser Amer, Pablo
Blanco, Kevin Han.sen, Ed
Lee, Rory Selman, Scott
Sharpiro, and Larry Wishnick. Often due to a lack of
wrestlers in a particular
weight class, the team would
have to forfeit two matches
per meet. "Even when we
gave the opposition an edge
by forfeiting two weights, we
still destroyed them " , said
Pablo Blanco.
Most importantly, the JV
team gave wrestlers the
valuable experience to one
day wrestle varsity and carry on a great wrestling tradition.
Deciding about his next move, Mark Tadelman prepares to move in for the
takedown. Although only a sophomore, Mark wrestles varsity.
The determination on the face of Elliot Malkin shows strong as he maintains control of his opponent. The 981b
wrestler is on the freshmen team.

Long Awaited Relief
Three! Two! One! Bzzzz!
The Indians won their eleventh game which snapped
the ten game losing streak
caused by a series of disabling injuries to four returning senior starters, Danny
Gold, Leo Gubenko, Don
Nole, and Dave Smolinski.
The first Indian victory came
against Pontiac in a tournament over Christmas break.
"It was a great feeling of relief and elation," remarked
Senior Robert Keller. Unfortunately, the ball just didn't

those first ten games began
with close scores, the Indians fell apart in the second
half too many ties. Senior
Don Nole commented, " In
the second half we couldn't
get our act together." After
an uneventful and unsuccessfu I second year of
coaching, Tom Meyer joined
his players in hoping that
next year would be the

dream just might come true.

�JV Cagers Down But Not
Out
The junior varsity basketball team had a productive
season, despite an 0-10 record. Juniors John Lally and
Max Shulman started for the
team and showed strong potential for varsity play next
year. Seniors Bill Burns,
Robert Keller and Brian
Buehling also started for the
team.
Coach Jim Doyle had
nothing but positive things
to say of the teams play this
year, "Although we had a
bad record, the team was in
every game. We lost most of
them in the last co uple of
minutes. The players hustled and showed progress
the entire season. It was
very enjoyable for me." said
Doyle. Starting guard Robert
Keller said, "The team
played and worked hard all
season. We just couldn't pull
the games out in the fina l
quarter."

�Commitment And Domination
If one word could describe
Coach Earl 's varsity squad,
it would be domination. Winning 17 of their first 19
games, the Indians slaughtered a majority of their opponents. The squads success stemmed from their
well-balanced attack.
Guards Lori Yetter and
Heather Donlon shot impressively from the perimeter while Debbie Pozdol
and Sandy Stergios handled
the inside game. Linda
Steiner, who filled the fifth
position , created havoc by
shooting well from all over
the floor. Besides displaying
offensive prowess, the LadyIndians also presented an
uncharitable defense,
backed up by depth on the
bench.
Commitment characterized the great success of this
team which practiced together in the off-season.
Knowing each others playing
abilities allowed the girls to
use their strengths and
weaknesses to produce a
team victory.
While the team's seniors
received their fair share of
playing time, Coach Earl also
played girls from all age levels, giving them needed experience for the future. The
way things look, Earl's Girls
will be a dominating force for
the future.

�Off To A Difficult Start
Starting the year with six
sophomores and four fresh
"women" provided a difficult beginning for the girls'
basketball team. "This
year 's team overcame inexperience by determination
and hard work, " said sophomore Julie Berg. Sophomores Doreen Kestler, Julie
Berg and freshmen Karen
Miller, Theresa Danguillan
and Jill Hammond showed
their skills and dedication
throughout the year. In one
of the more exciting games
of the year, th.e Indians losing to Waukegan East by 3
points at halftime, regrouped and went on to win
by 17 points, building confidence for future games.
After watch ing the Junior
Varsity team perform,
Coach Klebba felt that their
aggressive play and improving skills wou ld make next
year 's varsity team a rea l
competitor.

"Even though most of the

Amazing Talents
An amazing thing happened to wooden and metallic equipment when members of the Girls' Gymnastics
Team performed . The hardware became a tool for the
display of style, grace, and
beauty. A flat mat became
an ocean on which the girls
danced and soared . On the
bars and vault, the girls
floated , turning flips as
smoothly as dolphins in the
sea.
Although gy mna st i cs
seems to be an individual
sport, when competitions
rolled around , all the individuals combined to form one
powerful representation of
the teamwork needed for
success. The season went
smoothly, with the team
performing consistently and
confidently. A tough loss to
Highland Park was avenged
at . the Conference Meet,
where the team tied for second place. The season ended with a 6 win- 3 loss record, a "flip-flop " of last
year's results and a " leap"
of two places from fourth in
the Conference.
The strength of all four
levels led the team to its winning record , and the promise of the freshmen and
sophomores gives the team
a chance to develop into a
first rate competitor. With
their outstanding performances, sophomores Laura
Bowman and Barbara Kozlowski showed the bright future in store for the team.
According to sophomore
Sarah Harris, " There was a
lot of team work, and we
helped each other more."
With such cooperation, dedication, and talent, the team
seems ready to t ake on the
world.

�Rollercoasting With The
Gymnasts
After a rollercoaster ride
of ups and downs, the gymnastics season ended on a
very disappointing note. Favored to win the CSL conference title and place in the
top five of the state, the Indians missed both of these
goals due to the crippling injury that Tom Joseph received at the end of the season. Pulling together, the
team redeemed tl-:emselves
by stealing the regional title
from Highland Park, the conference champions. Coach
Burkel stated , " This year's
team had more potential
than last year's seventh-inthe -state-tea m ." Dairin
Baim, Adam Cohen, Scott
Jackson , and Sung Kim still
made Niles West's presence
felt at Forest View High
School, site of the Boys
Gymnastics State Meet. The
sophomore team flexed
their muscles by placing
third in a very tough conference and also boasting two
individual conference champions, Mike Colby on vault
and Andy Browder on rings .
Even though the Indians fell
short of their expectations,
many coaches still respected the Indians' fight for excellence even when the future looked very dismal.

When thinking about a

School should ring a bell. For
the first time ever in Illinois,
the Illinois High School had
sanctioned a girls state soccer tournament, and the
IHSA chose Niles West to
host it because in the past
years, Niles West had organized a local tournament,
consisting of teams in our division.
Taking pride in the IHSA
giving NiWeHi the honor of
hosting the tournament ,
Varsity Coach Brennan stated , " We are the pioneer
school of soccer, and I'm excited they chose our school
for the first girls state soccer
tournament in the history of
Illinois." The decision also
impressed the members of
the varsity team. Senior
player Karin Janessa commented, " As a four year
member on the team, I take
this decision as an honor. I'll
always remember that IHSA
chose my alma mater to
hold the first girls state tournament."

�Practice Makes
Perfect!
The perfection of any
sport requires many different elements, such as skill
and determination. One element though stands out
above the rest and that is
practi ce.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Here at
Niles West. practice plays an
important role in all of the
sports such as Football, Volleyball , Basketball, Wrestling, Baseball , and Track.
Whether it is practicing
shooting baskets , hitting
baseballs, or catching
passes any kind of practice
is necessary . After school
you can always find a team
either inside or out practicing and perfecting their
skills. You will find the baseball team outside on the field
hitting balls, or the basketball teams inside shooting
tree throws.
Not only is practicing the
basics of any sport but also
in conditioning. The weight
room is always filled with
athletes building up their
strength and stamina.
Coaches are also always
making sure that their team
players are doing their situps, push-ups, and running
laps . Conditioning is also a
major necessity in practicing
for a sport.
Practicing for an upcoming event takes up more
time than the actual event.
This is why practice is so important. If a team practices
hard, then eventually practice will make perfect.

Achieve Goals
Reaching new heights, establishing new goals, and fu lfilling them contribute to the
qualities of two active organizations, National Honor
Society and Spanish Honor
Society. Selectively chosen,
members of both clubs crusaded to achieve their goals,
whether it be a blood drive,
a food drive or a cultural
learning experience .
The National Honor Society, sponsored by Mr. Boevers, combined their efforts to help various organizations. A blood drive, a
spelling bee for Junior High
students, interscholastic activities, as well as a canned
food drive for the hungry
during the holiday season
contributed to their achieve-
ments. NHS provided a
unique and enjoyable learning experience for its members. Summing it up, Senior
Nick Nafpliotis commented,
"It's a useful function in our
society which kids our age
can participate in ."
Likewise, Spanish Honor
Society educates and provides an experience to remember for its members. As
president Gail Dennis expressed, " We all get along
well and it's an educational
experience. The members in
this group focused their efforts in understanding the
Spanish culture. Visiting a
museum of Mexican art and
watching a Flamingo Dance

�Ethnic Groups Around The World
Students from all parts of
the world often choose to
belong to one of our many
ethnic clubs. The Hellenic
Club continued with 6 years
experience under the guidance of sponsor Mrs. Angie
Panos, while the Korean
Club, headed by Mrs. Angela
Graham, and the Chinese
Club, sponsored by Mrs.
Carole Simone, began their
second year of activity. Another ethnic group, the Filipino Club, also gained approval. Although these clubs
represent students who
come from different ethnic
backgrounds, members
shared the same reasons for
establishing their clubs: the
desire to develop a secure
and friendly surrounding for
students new to this country
who might have problems
communicating with peers,
and also to help members
maintain their ethnic identity.
Throughout the year,
these clubs sponsored various fundraisers including
bake sales, taffy apples
sales, and candy sales. The
funds raised went to charities such as the Salvation
Army and to people who
needed money for serious illnesses. In return for these
donations, the clubs gained
experience in having meetings, organizing schedules,
and balancing books. " It's a
course in itself. Belonging to
an ethnic club truly makes a
better person out of you because you learn to deal with
problems that could easily
Jj
occur in everyday life," stc;ited Filipino Club member
Fehlyn Tulen. Each club also
held activities such as dinners, field trips, picnics, volleyball games, and horseback riding. Sometimes two
or more ethnic clubs joined
in an activity in order to promote unity and avoid isolation from the rest of the
school. Each of these ethnic
clubs involved students who
wanted to learn more about
their own culture as well as
the cultures of others, "Belonging to an ethnic club offers students a terrific experience in meeting new
people and it brings them together where they can have
fun , and share ideas," stated Korean Club member
Judy Kim.

Hong, offer suggestions of possible activities the club can hold. The club

for foreign foods and films
and enjoy experiencing a totally different culture, make

clubs. Each year, enthusiastic students meet on a biweekly basis to share views
and to participate in fundraising activities such as

Because of the devotion
of the members, French

activities including a trip to
the French play, "The Marriage of Figaro," as well as
their annual tr ip to a French
restaurant chosen by the
club members. "We had a

this year, and we had a lot of
fun, " exclaimed secretary

German Club started organizing their priorities very
early. A trip to Great America, and winter ski weekend ,
a culture walk through German Town, lunch at Cafe'
Lutz, and a shopping expedition with the West German
exchange students, kept
members active throughout
the school year.
Many new ideas inspired
the record breaking membership of the Israeli Club.
Along with Israeli Clubs from
other schools, members
competed in a volleyball
game. attended a dance fest ival, and went to an Israeli
restaurant. With the money
earned from bake sales,
they provided gifts for the elderly at the winter holidays.
With new leadership also
came new aspirations for
the Spanish Club . Using
money from bake sales and
donations, members provided toys for underprivileged Hispanic children.
In the spring, the foreign
language clubs also joined
the ethnic clubs to present
different aspects of their cultures to parents and students at an annual International Night. All these activi ties provided foreign language club members opportunities to learn about particular cu ltures while helping
others.

Freshmen/ Sophomore Cabinets
The Freshmen and Sophomore cabinets both had the
same goal in mind: To promote school spirit and plan
activities for the classes of
'90 and '91. The Freshmen
Class Cabinet, led by President Elliot Malkin and VicePresident Josh Feinberg, organized many fundraisers including a Valentine's Day
bake sale, and an "end of
the year" banquet. According to sponsor Laurie
Zucker, " I was thrilled with
the large turnout and eager
participation for the Freshmen Cabinet."
The Frosh-Soph mixer, lipsync, and a volleyball tour-
nament headed the list of
the accomplishments of the
Sophomore Class Cabinet,
with Brian Marcus as president and Leyla Arsan as
vice-president. All forty
members helped to make
sure the class of '90 had a
successful year. Member
Lori Utanoff commented,
" This year's sophomore
cabinet has worked hard
and we 've enjoyed every
minute of it."
Although the jobs were
new to some and old to others, members of both clubs
had some fun while working
hard to reach their goals.

�Does Anyone Second That
Motion?
Each week, the bang· of
the gavel announced the beginning of both Student Senate and Student Union
meetings. The members of
these two organizations
worked to improve the quality of student life.
"Student Senate gives
students a chance to work
with the administration to
better our school and its
policies," commented senior member Frank Brodsky.
Senate not only worked with
the administration, but also
with parents and teachers
as we ll. Students worked directly with the administration in the Student Appeals
Board where students and
directors had equal voting
rights. Student Senate, also
known as the student body
government, handled all the
school elections for class
Cabinets and Student Union,
as well as Student Senate.
Mr. James Sweeny, the
sponsor of Senate stated,
"The enthusiasm of both the
leaders and members is extremely gratifying." Student
government members visited another high school for
a day to observe that
school's government. Senate also provided opportunities for members to meet
and work with the Board of
Education.
While Senate dealt with
school government, Student
union took charge of planning exciting activities for all
class levels. "Student Union
upholds school spirit by uniting all class levels, " commented senior member Amy
Chertow. This active group
Reading the minutes of the previous Senate meeting are senior Joseph
Jovero and junior Eric Orsic. Senate provides students to work with the
administration to improve school policies.
sponsored the Homecoming
Dance in October, the after
finals bash in January, the
turn-about dance in March,
and Spring Activities Week in
April. In addition -to planning
dances and spirit weeks, the
members found reward in
working together in order to
make school more enjoyable
for all students. According to
treasurer Stephanie Gold,
"Student Union promotes
leadership skills which help
the members to participate."
Throughout the year, Student Senate and Student
Union provided opportunities for interested students
to participate in the government and social activities of
the school.

�Congratulations go out to senior Joy Grossberg as she is crowned Homecoming Queen.
Joy was one of the ten nominees who participated in the election.
A flawless performance is the result
of continuous practice. The Varsity
cheerleaders climb to great heights
during a school pep assembly.

Checking Out
Junior Ares Ebreo and date share a memorable
evening at the Homecoming Ball. Couples from
every class level attended.
�Checking Out
After lots of tiresome dancing, Pablo Blanco and Danielle Chams take a
brief break. Their space on the dance floor awaits them to return.
The mod 28 bell buzzed
throughout the silent hallways of NiWeHi every weekday at 2:25 pm. Mobs of
cheerful students filled the
deserted halls as they
"Checked Out" from their final classes. For a number of
these students, the mod 28
bell meant running to catch
the early bus, grabbing an
after school snack in the
cafeteria, going to a sport or
club activity, waiting in front
of room 140 to serve a detention, or rushing out of
school in order to make it to
their parttime jobs on time.
As for the other less fortunate students, the mod 28
bell did not designate that it
was time to "Check Out".
They were forced to remain
behind closed doors until
2:40, therefore the 2:25 bell
only reminded them that
they had 15 minutes left of
class. Concentration was difficult for these students due
to the constant disturbance
of banging lockers, the roaring sound of engines running
as classmates exited the
parking lot, and other excess volume within the building. These deprived students
who either had a lab or an
art class envied the others
who left at 2:25. "Having a
class until the 29th mod
tended to cause difficulties
for the unfortunate students
who had to catch the bus,"
stated Marny Pierini. Checking out at 2:40, or 2:25 if
you're lucky, was actually a
privilege that West students
enjoyed. Other neighboring
schools checked out of
school as late as 2:50 pm.,
or even 3:30 pm!
Despite the fact that
classes ended at 2:40, that
did not mean that the school
doors closed . An abundance
of students tended to leave
school at a much later time.
Being involved in a sport or
club activity often meant remaining in the building for
quite some time. Eventually,
students did check out of
school, but only to find
themselves checking in
again the next morning!
Indians make it clear to all that they are #1. The Homecoming Parade was
one of the greatest highlights of the entire week.
"Senior, seniors, ... " chant Midnight Rider members Julie Wickell and
Gabi Tomaclc. Once again, the seniors could be heard above all other class
levels.

�Aug. 29, 1988, approximately 1632
students entered Niles North. Some
eager Freshman were anxious to start
school. Others were nervous about the
overwhelming situation.
The class of '89 began their last year
of high school.
Many Seniors looked forward to this
beginning of the end.
On Monday of the first week of school,
there were stereotyped examples of
abusive Seniors, complaining Juniors,
bored Sophomores, and confused
Freshman.
By Friday, the confusion was reduced,
but complaints and boredom were still
noticeable. Anxious students made it
clear that they were looking forward to
a weekend of R and R.

WHAT TO DO BETWEEN
Whether it is the five minute passing period between Trig and
Bio.or the forty minute lunch
break , freetime and passing periods break the mono tney of a
long schoo l day. Stude nts
worked quietly in the library
studying for exams or getting the
homework out of the way. Others
dashed from class to class because the five minute passing period was to brief.
Each grade had its own way to
spend their freetime and passing
periods. Bewildered freshman
ran from class to class in constant fear of not making it on

tone. Junior year stude nts could
be seen doing last minute study ing reminded that the ACT was
aroun d the corne r. Colle ge
bound seniors could be seen with
stacks of apllications preparing
for their future.
Lunchtime was the one of the
highlights of a typical Niles North
t
day 1 gave students a chance to
relax, talk with friends and get
extra studying done. Bathr ooms
were a popul ar place during freetime or passing periods. Girls
used a brush and hairspray, or
touched up their makeup. Guys,
on the other hand, took a shorter
time in the bathroom. The college
resource room was always a
crowd ed place. Seeing the counselors was scheduled during freetime. Needing a throat lozenge
or stopp ing in for a visit was a
reason to see the nurse. Old Orchard Mall was a popular place
for lunch or shopp ing. It was an
escap e from the routin e of
school.

�Days Between
Friday: the 3:00 bell had just
rung-a fast break out of the
classroom and a mad dash for
the locker. Books and homework
and .off to the cafeteria to meet
friends. While huddled around a
table, plans were discussed for
the weekend. Partying, sleeping,
shopping, getting together, relaxing, and watching TV were suggested. At another table, some
guys suggested something different. A game of football , going to
a danceclub, working, sleeping,
listening to music, and watching
TV were on fhe list. The sugges-
lions were similar but the guys
wouldn't consider shopping, and
the girls refused to play football.
After some talking, we developed
a plan.
At home, school clothes changed
into party clothes and hair was
teased up. The car horn honked
and climbing into the already
crowded car, we headed for our
destination. The party was great,
but curfew was at 2 A.M.
Saturday morning began with
lunch. By 1:30, we were on the
CT A and shopping at Old Orchard-a popular weekend hangout. Later, at home, a book and
the radio provided relaxation.
Th at night, the movies and pizza
at Gino's East were fun and exciting. A babysitting job, the
phone, and television filled Sunday afternoon. Then the idea of
hitting•the books clicked in. With
books on the bed, and the radio
on, the homework was finished
by 9:30 P.M. By 10:30, I fell
asleep, thinking about Monday.

For junior Matt Gordon.and other
underclass students. catching the 3:20
bus home was important.
Between the Months
As seasons change, so the
tempo of some students' lives
change. The change of
activities, football to basketball,
outdoor P. E. to indoor P. E. ,
homecoming to Prom, signal
change.
Change is anticipated or fea red.
At the semester, the chance to
start over is burdened with
taking finals.
A big change of seasons
occurs between summer and
fall. Summer is full of the
beach, vacationing, and friends.
At the end of August there is a
challenge to face, a different
style of life. Fixed schedules,
hours of practice and
condit ioning, and making
decisions becoming part of our
school life style.
Whether it be sun, falling
leaves, snow, or fresh new
green grass the seasons and
other challenges are only as
good as we make them.

displayed in various ways.

Receiving good grades motivated hard

A new generation of Niles
North students have emerged.
They come from many parts of
Asia and 3rd world countries.
They have different styles,
different hangouts, and
appreciate d ifferent ways to
have fun. These students
weren' t recognized before, but
more of them are moving into
their own social groups. This
year at North, these groups
include U- Men, new Wavers,
Bad-Boys, Headbangers, and
Niles North Jocks. Today, new
students from different parts of
the world are immigrating to
the U.S. and becoming
Americanized. However, they
still try to keep thei r ethnic
identity.
Niles North has a great variety
of students. An esti mated 30 %
of Niles North students have
Asian background, 20 % are
European, 10 % are Spanish or
Afro-American, and 40 % are
natural cit izens. Even tho ugh
there are many differences,
students together participate in
activities and sports. They
socialize with each other, and
help one another.
These groups and the special
students make Niles North a
great sc hool.

THE YEARS OF CHANGE
Freshman Orientation to
Graduation-high, school
students looked forward to
these events. They marked the
begiinning and the end of an
experience. In-between these
events, students faced changes
that shaped their lives.
"Since my freshman year I got
a lot louder," announced senior
Steve Omachi. Senior year
was characteristically a ti me to
lay back and relax for
practically everyone. The
underclassmen enjoyed several
advantages. " Getting your
license gives you more
freedom," pointed out junior
Hun-Sook Kim. Sophomores
looked forward to being •
anything but a freshman.
" People treat you with more
respect when you're not a
freshman," boosted Tanya
Shenderov ich.
For freshman, Niles North was
a new experience that
in troduced new situations. They
had a lot more books, were
assigned a locker partner and
their next class always seemed
to be miles away. " The
teachers are a lot harder and
give more homework unlike
junior high," complained
Paulette Sallas. Graduation
symbolized freedom and
independence to many Niles
North students.
Jeanne Janowski
Having freshman football team
members stand on the tables one by
one is a favorite ritual among students.
John Gelb finds himself speechless
while everybody cheers him on
Gym class was a required class no matter what year students were. Whether it
was liked or not , they had to push themselves to learn the advantages of physical
education . This class has mixed feelings between like and dislike.
Graduation was the final step in this period of time. As students walk up to the
front , they remember back to the earlier years when graduation seemed so ·tar
away. Here. students cheer on their friends as they receive their diplomas.

�The food in Niles North was and will
always be undescribable. Students of
all ages will remember their first bite of
the delicious "Viking Special". While
students around them chat and eat.
Raanan Goldberger, Gary Frank, and
Alvin Danguilan record their reactions.
Driving to school was an advantage
that upperclassmen often gloated
about. The cars they drove were
anything as long as it had four wheels
and a motor. Martin Bany decides to
be unusual and go for a spin in the
hearse.
At first. freshman found themselves
confused with their way around the
school. As the year went by, though,
they could find their way through the
halls with ease. Jamie Topper smiles
to prove she's finally tackled Niles
North.
Students had different ways of
expressing themselves through the fine
art of locker decorating. Not only is her
locker marked up, but Sara Goodman
displays her feelings by drawing on her
face.

�IT'S OUR YEAR -
CLASS OF '89
As members of the 1989 graduating class, we recall
watching the movie "The Greatest Years of My Life"
at freshman orientation. In the movie, a comedian
entertained a senior class with his memorable
moments from high school. Having shared a funny
experience, the seniors in the movie and the
freshman audience laughed. Speaking about
graduation, the comedian remembered how his
friends had each gone separate ways after high
school. Seniors Were shown with tears in their eyes
as they spent last moments together. We were
unaffected. As freshman, we were unable to recall
similar memories. Four years later, we now
understand how those seniors felt.

�Julie Mitchel
Q: What's your opinion on closed halls at
Niles North?
A: I feel Niles North students are
responsible enough to handle themselves
in an open hall situation. Students
appreciate the fact that they have such a
privilege, and many have proven to be
responsible.
During resource periods, seniors took time to study for tests, write tefl'Tl
papeJs, or fill out college applications. Stnl, steepjng was an activity
many students en1oyed. Senior Al Satyr, and Julie Mitchel
use their time wisely during reso11rce oeriod.
School spint is always at its peak at Homecoming. It was a time when
classes decorated the school. Seniors show their spirit by painting the
windows.

SENIOR YEAR 88-89
Three words describe us - ENVY OF ALL. We were
priviledged. We drove to school or bummed a ride.
Our lockers were on the first floor. Ours was the first
senior class to walk on carpeted halls. Being
accepted to college relaxed some students and
provided a chance for us to enjoy the final month at
Niles North. We got our ACT together and built a
winning Homecoming float! A spirited Homecoming
pep assembly, an Amnesty International Rock
Concert, and Norsecapades were three of the most
high spirited events. Remember- ... your first day of
high school? ... dances? ... favorite classes? ...
favorite teachers? . . . the Viking Special? ...
graduation? ... friends? In 1989, there was hope for
the future and a desire to see one another at our ten
year class reunion ... ( 1999!).

�Pumping pressure! Anxiety filled
the air and the bodybuilders as
they awaited their turn to
demonstrate their strength.
Senior John Kim also
experienced this stress. As a
sophomore, his goal was not to
crack under pressure. In his
junior year, John's reward was
placing second in a Canadian
International Tournament. That
achievement was
complemented by state and
national titles. John felt
rewarded when he performed to
the best of his ability. The
rigorous hours of hard training
gave John self-discipline. A
strict training schedule of 27
hours a week on the Sayer
Park Weightlifting Team did not
give him much time to " fool
around." According to John,
"Working out is fun , and a way
of getting my agressions out."
Being in the Olympics was one
of John's main goals. His senior
yea r John began his hobby out
of curiosity. He gave credit to
Niles North coach Conway and
his team's and personal coach
Roger Neilson for helping him.
John acknowledged the
importance of his friends.
"When the going gets tough,
my coaches and friends are
always there to encourage me
to train."

The orchestra performed three times throughou
the school year. This musician put everything else
aside and concentrated only on her music. lrlt
Levlt devotes her full attention to her conductor.
Balloon-0-Grams were some rare attention
getters seen around school. The clown's
personality, balloons, and appearance were
enough to brighten anyone's day. Heether
Scheck enjoys the clown's company on her
birthday.

Q: What do you feel is the most important thing that Is going on
in the world today that will effect your life in the next century?
A: The most important thing going on in the world today is the
reduction of nuclear weapons by the United States and the
U.S.S.R. Even though both countries still have enough nuclear
weapons to destroy the world 100 fold, it's a good beginning.
Hopefully, in the years to come, more weapon treaties will be
ade to reduce or wipe out all nuclear weapons around the world.
n, our children and grandchildren will know what total world
is without the threat of world destruction.

Experience at the semi-
g access to the orchestra room for practice was just one of the
nefits of being a school-related band. " Being disciplined isn't enough;
· you have to learn to like practicing." replied Martin Sany. The band
members also chose the music that they played. There was only one
rule. the music had to include parts for all of the instruments.

Members of Electric Purple who hoped to make music their future career
were Ryan Cohan and Martin Bany. "Everytime I perform, I have to
psych myself up. by telling myself that I'm going to perform better than
I've ever performed before." responded Ryan Cohan. Two members who
related to music as a hobby were Randy Goldberg and Doug Mytnik.
Randy believed " More stress should be put on the line arts at school. "
Electric Purple's goals were to sound good and to be the best high
school band there could possibly be. Besides performing at an Amnesty
International concert, they also played at other public events. Doug .
admitted " The reason I'm in the band is because I like to entertain
people. I also like being in the spotlight." Martin, Ryan, Lauren, Randy,
Doug and Joanne were members of niles North's first rock band. Could
they have started a tradition?

�Building an award winning float was a hardworking, yet !unfilled

Good morning, Niles North. Here are
todays announcements." This
familiar saying was spoken by
sophomore Ben Halperin. He had
to have courage to speak to the
entire student body over the P.A.
system. When Ben started speaking,
he was nervous, but as the days
passed, he became more
comfortable with it.
The daily announcements were
meaningful and serious. They told
the students what, when, and where
they could find activities going on.
Ben felt that he had to give
character to his voice in order to
make the announcements interesting.
Ye tried to make them fun as well as
informative.

" I joined the speech team because I
had and interest in public speaking."
Being on the team allowed Ben to
be an announcer. He shared the
work throughout the year with other
Forensic members. "I always
watched 'WKRP in Cincinatti' Les
Nessman influenced me to be an
announcer." boasted Ben.

GOING FOR THE KILL
You need more than luck to be good
in volleyball. One of the reasons the
freshmen A team didn't do as well as
they wished was because of the lack
of communication on the court. That
did not mean that there was a lack of
experience. Jenny Cook played volleyball for three years before coming
to North. Jenny was known for her
powerful spikes and accurate serves.
One of the benefits of being on a
freshmen fall team is becoming familiar with the school before other freshmen. "I walked around after the summer practices and it helped me know
where everything was." recalled Jenny. Meeting new people and learning
to wisely organize her time were also
benefitted to Jenny. "Volleyball takes
up a lot of time that you normally
used to study, but I like the sport very
much, so it was worth it." concluded
Jenny.

Being a band director may look
easy, but it requires more than just
waving your arms around and taking
trips. Mr. Elton Eisele was in college
for five years, taking courses in
directing and reading scores as ~II
as learnig about all the instruments
in the band.
" Directing gives you a new outlook
on music. I want my students to be
able to enjoy music and have the
same good experiences that I had,"
commented Eisele. Conducting is
Eisele's thank you to his old
directors who gave him his good
experiences. During September, the
symphonic band and jazz band were
chosen to go to the Presidential
Inauguration in January o f '89. " I
was really excited about this. It was
a great opportunity and a
memorable experience for
everyone," said Eisele.

075 NEEDED
n administrative certificate is needed by anyone who acts as a summer school principal. Getting
the certificate prepares the educator for the administrative duties involved in operating a school.
Pete Christie has been a business teacher in Niles Township for 15 years. He has also been a
summer school principal for 11 years.
Wr. Christie has a master's degree in school administration and earned his 075 certificate in 1967.
Christie was a assistant principal at two Chicago high schools before coming to Niles North.

publicity, hiring teachers and secretaries, determining the bus schedule. cafeteria set up and
scheduling classes are time consuming .
l.1eeting the educational qualifications to receive an 075 certificate is only part of what it takes to
be a principal. Knowing what to do "on the job" gives valuable experience.

�Volunteering information gave variety to class discussions.
In this Child Development class, topics centered on the
growth of young children.

�Getting good grades was always a first
priority. Scott Lazer spends his free-time
preparing for the class discussion.
Many students often learn that not all
computers are user friendly. This
resulted in teachers. like Mr. Kelley, to
demonstate proper computer
commands to students.
Learning to make many different types
of meals and sweets inspired students
to enroll in a cooking course.
J
Like many students. teachers also
would converse freely while the lecturer
was not present. While waiting for their
speaker to return. Mr. Kelley, Mr.
Poznansky. and Mr. Wicinski talk
amongst themselves.
Child Development taught students
proper methods in raising children.

(English and Foreign Language).
1988 was the year when ten new faces were added to
the teaching staff at Niles North. The hiring of these
eager men and women for teaching positions at Niles
North was a result of several veteran faculty members
retiring. A large group of teachers being hired at one
period of time was a rare chance since Niles East
closed. Among the new faculty members include Julie
Kalnin (English}, Kevin Kelley (Business Education),
Bradley Krumpolz (Science), Roberta Price (Spanish),
Gina Ross (Science), Daniel Rusk (Math), Ann Stuart
I
The new teachers also worked as coaches and sponsers
of Niles North organizations. Sandra Wilson and Gina
Ross were teachers who found time in their schedules to
give help to various teams and organizations.

Commented Mr. James Blum, the new director of the
English department, " We are thinking of changing the
senior curriculum. It should go into effect in the fall of
1990." A new emphasis on listening was instigated. "You
can take the best notes in the world, but if you don't pay
attention during class, you could get home, look at your
notes, and say 'What the heck does this mean?'"
They were new! They were improved! They were the courses
at Niles North!! The change that affected the most students
was not an academic course, but in Gym! A new Coeducational Pilot program was instated during mods 11-1 3
and 20-22. "We observed other schools that had this
prog ram," commented coach Pat Grant. " We saw they
were successful in improving students physical fitness." The
prog ram grouped students by overall physical fitness and
emphasis was put on improving physical cond ition. "We
were satisfied wit h the initial results. Students showed
improvement between fitness tests. But, we need more
facilities to accurately test fitness."
A new Fine Arts department was established and Mrs.
Rita Stewart was named director. The theatre courses
were moved from the English department to the new Fine
Arts section. The new department opened up the
oppurtunity for visual art, music, and theatre teachers to
discuss the courses that were taught and how they cou ld
cooperate as arts instructors.
Dr. David Schusteff, director of the Math and Science
department, said that there were no new courses started in
the '89 school year, but, like most other departments, there
was a continuous review of the cirriculum in most of the
courses.

�During a student's four-year stay at Niles North, he
experienced many different classes. Electives were as
diversified as Economics to Sculpture and Child
Development to AP Computer Science. By taking different
kinds of classes, the students would encounter different
kinds of tests, not to mention the aptitude tests for posthigh school education.
Art classes involved reading from textbooks, doing
homework, and completing projects. Taking a test in an
art class would imcorporate all of these. A teacher may
have prepared short-answer exams related to the
textbook. He would also ask the students to apply their
skills on a one-class period project.
In the Math Department, students learned skills and
formulas relating to the subject matter. Students believed
that they would never use advanced math in real life;
however, Director of Math and Science, Dr. David
Schusteff believed there were real-life applications for
advanced mathematics. He also thought that tests should
have covered these, for instance using the Pythagorean
Theorem to proove that a room is actually a box with
right angles. For tests in computer classes, students were

not asked to repeat fac ts, but insteaad they were to wr ite
a program and hand it in at the end of the period.
Students in physica l education classes were even tested.
Upon completion of a section dealing with a speci fic
sport, the students were tested on their knowledge with a
written test or tested on skills. For instance, after
volleyball, the gym teacher would test the students on
their serve, bump, set, and spike.
During the Junior and Senior years, students would take
the ACT and SAT tests. They were aptitud e tests given
nationally and used by colleges and universities for
admissions Emphasis of these tests varied from college to
college, usually less emphasis from the smaller, more
selective schools.
As diversified as the programs and classes were at Niles
North, so were the methods of testing. Multiple choice,
essay, and fill-in-the-blank were but a few of the many
ways to examine students' knowledge.
Steve Gardberg
Studying throughout the semester
prooved valuable for finals. Jared
Kirchheimer sets himself aside at a
quiet table in the LLC.
�In Driver's Education. students were
tested on their skills, such as turning
and parking. Instructor David
Mccarrell prepares himself for a road
test.
·Fact and dates were important to learn
art history. Freshman Sibyl Noyin
completes a test on texture.
The College Counselor program was
rather recent at Niles North. While in
the College Resource Center. Mrs.
Shirley Foss organizes information
about the ACT preparation class.
Taking a big test could really tire
someone out. Matt Klinghoffer feels
relieved after a U.S. History test.
Members of the Orchestra put many
hours towards improving. Practicing for
her test, Junior Judi Utschen readies
herself for the big moment.

�Advisor, Mr. Robert Wolf, said, "With increase in Freshmen
participation, the future looks promising and exciting."
They were not exciting football games, nor were they thrilling
track meets, but they were challenging and fun to participate
in. Many students took part in academic competitions
because it gave them the chance to compare their
knowledge with students from other schools. In order for the
teams t o prepare throughout the year, most competitions
occurred in the spring of '88.
Every year there has been a Conference Spelling Bee in
which Niles North competed. Four years in a row, Vikings
brought home a trophy.
Student of the Month awards were given to approximately
ten students and several teachers each six week period.
They were recognized by individual accomplishments.
Academic achievement was not a requirement for the award.
Students from any grade level could become a Student of
the Month.
The bands were engaged in competitions. In the Al l
American Music Contest in Florida, the Concert Band placed
third, the Jazz Band placed first out of seven bands, and the
Symphonic Band placed first out of fifteen bands.
The Niles North Math Team was competitive. They placed
sixth in state finals last spring.
Chemistry teacher. Mr. Frank Cardulla, was awarded the
Presidential Awa rd for Excellence in Science and
Mathematics Teaching. The finalists went to Washington D.C.
and an award was given to one teacher in each state.
The Academic Bowl Team participated in annual
competitions. The tournaments involved any academic
subject and occasionally, questions covered sports activities.
In the spring of '88, at the end of a very prosperous year,
sixty-three students were named Illinois State Scholars. They
were the top 5 % of their class and received an award.
DECA, Distributive Education Clubs of America, was
composed of a group of seniors who were interested in
marketing and business management. They participated in
contests which had twenty-nine events. Advertising , business,
and writing sales were included. Individual students won
schola~ships, trophies, and sometimes shares of stock.
Amy Freedman
Each year one High School Science tea cher in the United
States received the National Catalyst Award. Two years 1n
a row. Frank Cardulla received this honor.
Forensics competed in IHSA invitationals from November to
January, and state and National competitions in February
and March. The variety of events included duet acting, verse
reading, extemporaneous speaking, radio speaking, etc.
Information on colleges was located in the first floor College
Resource Center. Mrs. Shirley Foss. college counselor.
helped students select a college. Dean Wei takes notes for
writing his college essay.

�programs were open to any of the students and facu lty.
"I've been organizing programs for thirteen years and I
love what I do."
This year at Niles North something new was created.
Programs took place that were extensions of classroom
education. Creative ideas were gathered to produce
programs that contributed to classroom education. Lillian
Mann, Special Program Coordinator, organized events for
International Week, Youth Art Month, Holocaust Day,
Martin Luther King Day, and programs dealing with drugs,
stress, divorce, and human relations. Videos were shown,
and speakers were brought in to address these special
topics. "I aim for programs that will bring a sense of well
being and some insight into issues that are important for
our students to know," commented Mrs. Mann. In order
to organize these programs, Mrs. Mann made calls, wrote
letters, found information about the performances, and
publicized the programs. "I use the daily bulletin,
newspapers, and the pulic address system so both faculty
and students are aware of what's available." These
Peter LaForge organized Seminars for Scholars. The
seminars covered a wide variety of topics. The purpose for
the Seminars for Scholars was to confront capable
students with discussion topics. Biomedical Ethics and the
American Penal System were highlighted. The group met
six times during the year. To be a part of the seminars,
students were juniors or seniors with at least a B average.
The goals for both the Special Programs and the Seminar
series were to expand student's learning outside the
classroom.

Twice a month the "N" club met to discuss their future events. The "N "
club was also visited by famous Niles Nort h graduates who were in
professional sports. Seniors Steve Kenzer and Oleg Schubow were
enthusiastic about the speaker.
Lettermen sweaters came back to life
after 5 years. Members of the "N" club
gathered to discuss types and sizes of
sweaters they would be ordering.
Paying close attention was something
Lee Sternstein was good at.

�Mr. Peter Laforge was responsible
for the Seminars for Scholars.
A special program arranged by Mrs.
Mann used volunteers from the
Response Center. They discussed the
topics of teen suicide and stress with
students at North.
Students attending SADD meetings
showed their concern for drunk driving
accidents and issues. Guest speakers
discussed the dangers of driving drunk.
Students listen intently to the presented
information.
Mrs. Lillian Mann, Special Program
Coordinator, organized programs.
The presentations generally took
place in 0100 and added
information to classroom education.
Oral presentations were required by
English teachers. Time and effort were
spent on the research for presentations.

Mr. Proffit listens for mistakes.

Within the past 25 years, Niles North has been visited
by many foreign exchange students. In January of 1989
North opened its doors to a Brazilian girl named
Debora Souza.
Debora came to the United States through the student
exchange program Youth tor Understanding
Association. The association assigned Debora to live
with a young couple with whom she would be
comfortable with.
Debora came from Belo Horizonte (Beautiful Horizon),
Brazil where she lived with her parents and older sister.
In the tall of 1988, when she was 17 years old, she left
home to attend the Federal University. There she began
a program which led to a degree in psychology. The
Federal University was considered the best university in'
Brazil and required vigorous testing in order to be
accepted. " It was difficult because I graduated a year
early. The other students had an advantage over me."
she commented.
Life in the U.S. was quite different tor Debora than life
in Brazil. "In Brazil we live in an apartment or condos,
here there are more houses with backyards, this is what
I envy." she commented. In addition to her family,
Debora missed the yearly Carnival which started on
Ash Wednesday. " Rio is famous tor its yearly Samba
school contests. I look forward to it every year."
" During these six months I got to learn a different
culture- a different way of life. It was an excellent
\earning experience," she replied excitedly, "but when I
\eave the states I'll miss the different kinds of candy
and food. They are delicious but I' m so scared of
gaining weight!"

hat is cheerlea ding all about? The
cheerleaders of Niles North were the
people who tried to bring spirit to
our schoo l. "Our school needs to get more
involved." commented Dana Lyall, senior
co-captain of the varsity squad.
W
With Perfection
A camp which the squad attended each
summer helped them learn moves, cheers,
and taught them everything they needed to
know. The girls live, eat, and sleep
cheerleading. Sleep is minimal but they get a
lot of cheering experience. Improving their
form . getting along with everyone on the
squad, and being competitive were some
benefits of the camp.
It was hard to cheer on a rainy day, but the game must go on!
Stacey Skolnik smiles and has fun in spite of the rain.
New people, different cheer formations, and
fresh enthusiasm prepared the squad for the
school year.
Dana added, "One of the best things about
being a cheerleader is being able to act
stupid and get away with it. The serious
th ings that we need to think about, involve
choosing cheers and when to do them. The
cheerleaders needed to have a good time
cheering without worrying about winning or
loosing. There is always another game to
play."
As a co-captain of the varsity squad, Dana
set goals for her fourth year. " Enthusiastic
cheering and having an outrageous ti me at
camp made the year fun," remarked Dana.

and major universities.
With a count of 3-2 Sonny Gallman gets a sign for a
fastball and delivers the third strike to end the game
Gallman was the co mvp for lhe team.
Going into the 88 season the team had high expectations.
but were unable to fulfill all of them. Pitching as usual was
the teams strong point, which depicted one of the finest
pitching staffs in the Chicago area. The teams E.R.A. was a
remarkable 2.8 for the season. and the staff was led by
senior Scott Zuckerman and junior Sonny Gallman.
According to Jim Sakas the head coach "One of the keys
to our pitching success was the outstanding control of our
pitchers.
The team was motivated going into the 88 season due to a
great summer season. Sakas went on to say. "Early in the
season we had a slump, but I think it had something to do
with the cold weather. We have problems hitting in the
cold, but as soon as the weather heats up so do our bats."
The team had some other problems as well. in the middle
to late season the junior and seniors boys split into two
separate teams When asked what three words would
describe the varsity team of 88 senior Matt Smith
answered " Experienced. strong. fun."
After losing to Glenbrook the team did a complete
turnaround by winning both games of a double header from
Evanston due to a great pitching performance by Scott
Zuckerman and Sonny Gallman who won and 11 inning one
hit shutout. Even though the team didn't meet up to
expectations they had a good year.

The Z-95 team of the
week and conference
bound Vikings proved
basketball was more
than just a game. Our
tall, cool heros made it
an adventure.
ost people do not realize how much
hard work, practice, and dedication
it takes to play good basketball.
After the days of try-outs and the teams
were picked it was practice, practice, and
more practice. Strengthening up the offense
and toughening up the defence were major
obstacles along with deciding who the five
starting players would be. Most important
the coaches stressed teamwork. "Five guys
on the court working together to play the
best basketball they can," emphasized Pete
Christie, coach for the Boys Varsity team.
Each of the teams had their own practice
schedules. The boys varsity team practiced
Monday through Saturday having special
practice nighs Wednesday from 5:45 to 8:00.
Every practice was set up to follow a strict
schedule touching on all major aspects of
the game. The girls team practiced on the
same Monday th rough Saturday schedule
although, during the first half of the season
this time was spent adjusting to a new
coaching staff, and the coaching staff
adjusting to the players.
It's not often that a player gets a good angle at the basket.

A good bowler needed concentration and
desire to play. The girls on the Niles North
Bowling Team demonstrated these techniques
and were determined to do well.
The team practiced hard three times a week,
so they would do their best at the meets.
Oakton Bowl was the Bowling home of the
Vikings. As a school group, they got a discount
for practicing there.
Freshman Jenna Harra gently places
the ball on the alley. hoping to avoid
the gutter
Coach Lange emphasized the need for
participation. The right combination of girls
could put together a strong team. Lange was
willing to help anyone w~io was interested in
learning to play.
Participation increased from past years. This
season there were thirteen girls on the team.
They had their first victory this year and there
was a huge improvement in scoring.
Niles Township is not a bowling community.
Only four bowling alleys are located in the Ni le~
Suburban area. This lack of enthusiasm for the
sport is apparent in the small number on the
Bowling team.
As long as there was continuing interest and
enough girls to field a full varsity team, Bowling
continued to be a sport at North .

During a practice session the teams stretched
out for about fifteen minutes. The sprinter ran a
half mile whi le the distance runners ran a mile.
"Stretching out before a meet or during a
practice helped loosen up all the tense muscles.
It also prevented cramps during a run,"
commented Nateba Montgomery. Most of the
runners ran about 700 to 800 miles during the
track and cross country season.
During the cross country season the team
members did not do anything out of the
ordinary. Before a meet they would run the
entire three mile course to warm up. Last year

another regardless if they won or lost.) 'They
looked on the bright side," explained Gina

an individual sport. Even though our record
didn't show it, the team was unified and
worked well together." Enthusiasm, was a
major contribution to their success. After the
tea ms first victory, enthusiasm increased.
People made personal sacrifices of other
important issues for the team. Kevin Pogany,
who was selected for All-Conference in boys
cross country said, "This season was the best
in six years."

�Vikings Take it to the
Limit
his was another down year for the Viking
varsity football team, or was it. They
started off their season hoping to
improve on last years 2-7 record. Most of the
critics said the Vikes' defense was going to be
the backbone of the team while the offense
would struggle. The critics were right. The
defense held most of their opponents to under
17 points. The defensive strong point was led
by co-M .V. P. Ruel Mallari. According to senior
lineman Aaron Hodges and safety Waldemar
Mattner this year's team had more heart and
wanted to win more than most. The offense
was young and inexperienced. Sophomore
Brian Brown had to start at QB because of a
season ending injury to senior Bill Luckman.
The offensive line was very small and not as
quick as some of the other schools in the NSC.
The brightest spot in the offense was co-M.V. P.
and all conference tailback Dwight Smith.
Dwight was a very explosive runner who made
it through holes that were unsighted by others.
The Varsity ended up with an 0-9 record, but it
looks very bright for future NN football teams.

Most of the season the Freshman B team handed
the ball off, but when they threw the pass it
worked just as well.

Future Golf Pros
l's a fun sport," comments Mark
Berkowitz "We encourage other people
to try out for the team even if they are
not very good." The golf teams only
requirement was the use of their own clubs.
I
The golf season lasted from September to
October. Practices took place at the Glencoe
Golf Club, which lasted for three to three an a
half hours. The team would participate in two
or three matches a week. The maximum
number of clubs a player could use was fifteen.
They ranged from 3-9 irons pitching and sand
wedges to drivers and putters.
Golf takes a lot of skill and concentration. The golf team
constantly practiced their follow throughs. Mike Byron
admires his swing.
In the 1988-89 season the varsity golf team
had 6 wins and six losses. The Junior Varsity
Golf Team had one win and eleven losses. At
the beginning of practices in August there were
inexperienced freshmen, but during the course
of the season they gained more experience.
The team finished the season on an up beat.
After weeks of rigourous practice, the teams
efforts paid off. The team was looking forward
to their next season.

Go for the Goal Niles
North !
or the past four years, the Niles North
Girls' Varsity Soccer Team had great
teams, and last year was no exception.
Led by All-American player Shari Rozmus and
All-State player Marlo Kantor, the Vikings
were led to the sectional finals and ended with
a 23-5 record. Shari's brother Tom Rozmus
made All-Conference, and led the Boys' Varsity
Soccer Team with eight goals and three assists
for the season, even though the Boys Varsity
Soccer Tearn was young and inexperience.
Three wins for the season did not give the kind
of record they had hoped to achieve. "Five
seniors will be missed next year. The team was
made up mainly of juniors, but with the
experience they gained this year, they should
be a success," commented Tom Rozmus.
Shari Rozmus and her brother Tom were both
captains for their varsity soccer teams. They
both scored the most goals for their team, and
Shari broke the school record her junior year at
Niles North with forty-nine goals. Shari scored a
total of one hundred and sixty-nine goals for
the four years she attended Niles North. The
Varsity Teams for Niles North still hope to be
Illinois State Champions. "In soccer, we must
play hard and try our best to reach goals,"
added Boys Varsity Player Alex Brikman.
William Coulson, the Boys' and Girls' Varsity
Soccer Coach, has been a soccer coach in
#219 since 1973. Coach Coulson has
dedicated his time to making the Niles North
Soccer Team the best.

Team learns unity is the
key to success
otential, spirit, and determination described
the '88 Girls Varsity Softball Team. The
team of 8 seniors, 2 juniors, 3 sophomores,
and 1 freshmen was led by Coach Balciulis. Its
M.V.P. player was Rhonda Wendt and Danica
Petrovic made all-conference. The team practiced
everyday from March until June. Their strength
was hitting. Six players had an overall batting
average of .300. Coach Balciulis remarked, " The
eight experienced players were competant. However, both mental and physical errors were made
due to the inexperience of the rest of the team."
Illness and injuries inhibited the team's consistency. At the end of their season, and after much
practice, the team overcame its weakness as a
playing unit, and the players became enthusiastic.
Although their record failed to identify them as a
winning team, their spirit gave an opposite message. In comparison, the Girls Junior Varsity
Team, led by Coach Busch , learned that "winning isn't everything." Sometimes, enjoying what
you are doing is more important.

�TEAM LEARNS KE Y
TO VICTOR Y ENDURANCE
"No one thinks of swimming as that
challenging of a sport. People do not realize
the time and effort that you have to put in."
stated sophomore Nikki Herberg.
However swimmers did put in a lot of effort,
team members practiced twice a day, in the
morning and two hours after school. The
swimmers also went through weight training
and conditiona l running.
Diving was an acquired skill that took long hours of
concentrarion and practice. Senior Mike Johnson executes
a back dive with style. during a meet.
Endurance was a key point since both teams
were lacking in numbers. Each had to rely
on strength and perserverance in order to
pull foth victories.
Even though the girls team lost most of their
meets, they had a strong season due to
individual successes. for the second year in a
row co-ca ptain Dori Mozes was elected most
valuable swimmer, while her counterpart
Heather Sheck recieved numerous awards in
diving.
This years boys varsity team was at a slight
disadvantage because of many inexperienced
sophomores. Each swimmer put in his best
effort, whether it was improving a stroke or
breaking a previous record, each litt le victory
led to a general feeling of accomplishment.

Advantage
he boys' tennis team was energetic and
motivated. There was a lot of moral
support among teammates. The key
players who helped win conference and second
in the sectional were Ray Arceo, John Chun,
Andy Mabadi, and Steve Sand. The boys
tennis team competed in the Spring and the
girls' competition was scheduled during the Fall.
The girls' training usually took place after
school while the boys were playing all year
round. This gave the boys more experience.
Enthusiastic cheers from the fans also helped
motivate team members during their matches.

foot with a win over Zion-Benton.
T
Wrestlers Have One
Memorable Season.
To show who won a match. the referee raised the victor's
arm. After a tiring match, Matt Krecun is rewarded by
applause and cheer when the referee raises Matt's arm.
" Wrestl ing is a tough and demanding sport.
The conditioning is hard and everyone is
always working. Although it seems like an
individual sport you really have to work as a
team," said co-captain Simon Lee.
The highlight of the season was at the
Elmwood Park tournament. The team missed
1st place by one point, but most of the team
reached the finals. Commenting on the overall
achievement of the team, Simon Lee said,
" The general feeling was that we could have
done a lot better than we did. We were a
young, inexperienced team, and I guess it
showed."

A Family of Dancers
The lights were dimmed, the audience was silent in their
seats, when suddenly the music began and dancers filled
every inch of the stage. It was a beautiful show. There was a
big variety of dancing. "It included a little spice of
everything," remarked Donna Troka, sophomore member of
the Auroris Dance Company.
"I joined Auroris because I love dancing. I thought it would
be a fun way to spend my time with friends, and to get in
shape," added Donna.
Each dancer choreographed a dance and the club members
voted on which ones to use for the show. Dancers met every
Wednesday from 3:30 to 5:30. The week before was intense.
Practice lasted everyday until 10 o'clock.
Auroris was a big family. Everyone was friendly. There was
no discrimination against grades. Being in Auroris was helpful
with meeting people and making new friends during high
school.
The hard work and late nights, that were necessary didn't
interfere extensively with work. Coordinator, Suzi Gantz,
encouraged Auroris members to be involved in other
activities. She was very lenient with those people who had
jobs.
"We were all there to dance, learn, and have fun," Donna
concluded.

Bands travel to D.C .
It took 14 long hours to get the Niles North symphonic and
jazz band band to Washington D.C. There were two buses
carrying 49 band members and 6 chaperones. The buses
were uncomfortable for sleeping, instead band members
vocalized the usual camp songs including "100 Bottles of
Beer on the Wall" .
Niles North and 16 other high school bands were chosen to
participate in the Presidential Inauguration festivities.
Symphonic, jazz, marching bands, and chorus were all
selected out of hundreds of bands across the country.
This contest was for bands of a high level. Judging was
more strict than other high school band contests. The
symphonic band received a first, the highest rating possible,
and jazz band received a 2nd place rating.
Receiving these scores at a contest of this superior level
gave the Viking band an outstanding reputation for 1989.

Being accepted to the Inauguration was not a surprise to those who
followed the jazz bands' improvement over the years. Although the jazz
band received a second, their concert performance was as fantastic as

�" What happened. what happened?"
When the marching band wasn't
parading, the jazz band took over at
the football games. But sometimes the
game was a distraction to the music.
Bands have what it takes
Don't assume that Niles North didn't have musical talent
during the 1988-89 school year. The bands were selected to
perform at special events and were featured in thei r own
programs at school. Playing a wide variety of modern and
classical band music demanded skill from each band
member.
Individual musicians entered in the regional and state
competition sponsered by IMEA, lllinios Music Education
Association. Seniors Steven Andrey and Steven Omachi
were selected for All-State Honors. Senior Natalie Auer and
juniors Stephen Penepacker and Kyong Ro were selected
for District 7 band.
The band traveled to Washington D.C. during the 1989
Inaugural festivities. In Chicago, the jazz band played in the
closing event for the Chicago International Film Festival
which was attended by famous actors, producers, and
directors.
The band played thei r usual winter and spring concerts, but
added a twist. During their winter concert, the whole music
organization joined for a two-hour concert with the orchestra,
concert band, choi r, and symphonic band playing and
singing their favorite Christmas and Hanukah songs. Their
spring concert's music was a whole collection of popular
music that the audience knew.
During the six years Mr. Eisele has been at North, the bands
have come from being average to now being in the top 3 %
in the country. Most bands would stop there, but Niles North
always seem to find a way to get even better.

In Music Everyone Counts
Orchestra was different in 1988-89. "It took ·Several years to
learn how to play the violin or any instrument," commented
Bart Rotberg. Concentration was not as important as
learning the material. " Mr. Sklar, Orchestra director, gave
his best effort in making everyone blend together and create
a great ensemble. He brought out the sound of the
instrument to their best ability, " commented Bart. Playing
each section in front of people, and imagining all of the
possible mistakes was one way Bart Rotberg prepared
himself for a concert.
Chorus sang a wide variety of music. They sang several
types of songs throughout the year. "Mr. Anderson, Chorus
director, selects the music and plays the general melody,
while everyone else sight-reads the music and learns the
words so it all comes together, " commented JoAnn
Llorente. "Chorus can be alot of fu·n if you sing the music to
your best ability and put your heart and soul into it,"
commented Evalynn Humphreys. There are thirty-five
people who are involved in chorus and each one helps
support everyone else," added JoAnn Llorente.
Concerts were always a time for high strung nerves. Abe Lee helps a

The temperature: 70 degrees. The sun: brillant. The
atmposphere: electric. That summed up June 12; when the
1988 Senior class became the 1988 Graduate Class.
That afternoon hundreds of ecstatic friends and relatives
assembled on the football field. "You could hear murmurs
from the spectators," recalled band member Adam Weiss.
"Then we were signaled to start playing and everybody
applauded.''
As the band started, 435 seniors, led by the school board,
emerged from the building and meeted the spectators on the
field. You could see the excitement in the faces of the soonto-be graduates and their parents.
When all were seated. Tom Giles spoke about the highlights
of the Class of '88. After a round of applause, the student
leaders spoke to their peers.
Then the moment all concerned were waiting for. Names
were called, a senior went up to the podium, and a graduate
came back. Some showed no feeling when they took their
diploma. Others let out everything out.
Moments later, it was over. The new graduates shedded their
caps and gown s and began a new chapter in their lives,
leaving Niles North behind them forever; or at least until they
open their yearbooks.

Generally, the students auditioned for a singing, acting, or

meant that some students would have just a few lines. "I
was satisfied, it was an incredible experience and a great
way to get into theater," explained Melissa Solovy. " Inherit
the Wind" was a production done in the spring of 1988. The
play took place in a small Christian town during the early
1900's. The design of the set was ve ry simple because of
the number of scenes that were performed. The play was
based on a court trial consisting of three lawyers, a judge, a
jury, and a very hasty and nosey group of town citizens.

They were told that high school years would be the best times of their
lives. Some students did not agree. but many found the tale to be true.
What was wonderful about '88-89 at Niles North? What will be told to
the next generation? ...
That we met and broke up with friends, that we got to watch
Varsity and Junior Varsity football players coax Freshmen
players into singing on cafeteria tables. That we went to our
school's plays, bashes, and games, that we got carpeting in
'88, that we had pep assemblies and learned to deal with
politics in Student Congress, that we saw our '89 Vikettes
perform on T. V., and that the first thing to start the school day
was "Good Morning Niles North" from those AAA
announcements.
Those Were the times at Niles North.

�To everything- turn, turn, turn, There is a seasonturn, heaven ...And they've time to every purpose
unto turn, turn
Know/edge was gained. Students worked and
studied. Throughout the school year Vikings grew
and prepared for new challenges.
A time to give ...
Using the Amnesty lntemafionat Cance« and P,oject
Lead, students 'eached out to hetp the needy. By
giving, they enriched themselves and others.
A time to laugh . ..
. . . Bright Lights, freshman singing on tab/es, Lip
Sync, Nocsecapades. the "little peopte", toga bash,
Bumpkin's video, Deca announcements.
A time to break-up ...
Vikings made friends during the year, but summer
activities and new friends diminished the strength of
the school year bonds.
A time to dance and mourn
Vikings teamed to confront defeat. Students coped
with trying times in sports, acedemics, and social
relationships. Good times balanced bad times.
a time to gain ...
Students matu'ed and set new goats They g'ew and
learned from their losses.
A time for peace- I swear it's not too late . . .
Students tea,ned about themsetves, and discove,ed
satisfaction and fulfillment in themselves and in their
friends.
The song TURN, TURN, TURN was written by
Pere Seeger and recorded by The Byrds.

�WHEEL EXCURSIONS, INC.
Luxurious Chauffeur Driven Motor Homes
How many times has the party died on you before it even started?
If you are planning a party, consider the ultimate travel party. The
party is nonstop from the moment you board one of our luxurious
motor homes and can keep on going into the night. After the prom,
you can have a moonlit boat ride with Captain Steve of the
Wendella Boat Rides. Then on to a morning breakfast at one of
Chicago's hot spots ... or plan your own after-prom party and one of
our consultants will meet with you to finalize your plans.

There was an exls·
tence of this power In
each and every one of
us. Harnessing this
power by the students
and faculty was reflected In the 1987-88
school year. But wait!
Before we get to the
core of this power,
let's not forget about
the catalyslsts that
surrounded the Niles
North Student: for ex·
family, and friends
with fidelity. Faculty
not only motivated
students, but taught
for a purpose and led
with foresight [to prepare/ provide for the
future]. Another vital
catalyslst was a family
which was formative
[helping or Involving
formation or development] to the student
throughout the school
year. And last but not
least, were the friends
of the student. We
were not just talking
about acquaintances,
but good friends with
fidelity [faithful devotion to duty; loyalty].
This force of energy
channeled through
hours of effort, sweat,
and sometimes even
tears. Did the saying
"No · Pain, No Oaln"
mean anything? CU·
che' or no cllche', this
saying meant exactly
what It said to the stu·
dents during the 1987·
88 school year. Tar·

dents and so were the

Songs were fun , but serious things
were also taking place. One of the
most important events that hap·
pened was Freshman Orientation,
held on August 26 and 27. The
Freshman entered the school ,
many for the first time, and left
knowing their way around the entire building. As always, the " Freshies" went to the B-100 room for
a scholastic test and a hearing test
in the library. They also picked up
their books and school l.D.'s. For
the first time, Freshman yearbook
pictures were taken during Orientation . In past years , they were

senior commented,
" Getting books used to be a real
hassle. We had to wait in line a
the bookstore, even longer than i
took to return them. I'm glad they
changed ."
The cafeteria served many pur
poses for students aside from eat
ing, such as chit·chatting, relax
ing, and doing homework. Nobod
would be scolded for talking t
loud, while in the library, conversation was practically prohibited.
" Taking the school bus was a
unique experience," explained
Freshman John Passman. " On
occasions there was a substitute
bus driver who was different from
the rest. He had WCKG blasting on
the radio and was dressed like a
teenager. But our usual driver was
real quiet and avoided talking to
us."
From Orientation to getting
books, from eating lunch to riding
the bus, another year at Niles
North started with positive attitudes and new ideas.

the Spirit Week with the Hip e,

leaders who sported their showy
Viking outfits. Cheerleader Sandy

Students did not have to join the
football team or the cheerleading

They made a contribution to the
school spirit by going to the foot·

the sixties, and even the seven·

Luckman. Penny loafers, mini
skirts, and long hair were created
in the past three decades, yet we
molded the ideas to fit our modern
image.
Viking and modern fashion promoted a special style for the stu·

Don Avery , a sophomore, un·
leashed a memory about his first
week in school. After uttering the
phrase "'Bolshevick " in algebra
class , he was repremanded for be·
ing a smart alee. He quickly
learned not to make unrelated
statements in class.
Student Council President, Dan
Goldberg, remembered the '87
Senior Showcase. "I put a band
together and we rehearsed for two
days. When performance time
came our guitarist was nowhere to
be found. It turned out that he was
caught drinking an alcoholic bev·
erage in the Old Orchard parking
lot. A person who drinks often
hurts other people than himself,"
commented Dan.
Memories, good, bad and indelibly
imprinted are the key to recalling
high school days.

�Jumping on the bus, arriving
at school at 7:35 and having
to wait twenty five minutes
before running off to AAA
was how most students at
Niles North started their
day. Although some were
very fortunate· to drive they
still had to be in AAA at SAM
sharp. Walking through the
halls students were identi·
fied into many different
groups. Jocks were the guys
and girfs who participated in
sports, Soshes, U
-men, A.P.
people, punkers, heavy metals, and dweebs. Some

groups were easier to spot
than others because of
clothing, haircuts, or general manners. The power of
the school was stored up in
the 373 Freshmen. 421
Sophomores, 432 Juniors,
and 435 Seniors.
"My image of Niles North
has changed drastically
since freshmen year." replied Senior Dana Ehrens.
"It's all a stereotype of oth·
er people." added Senior Jil
DiNicola.
School halls were only one
spot where people met.
McDonalds on the weekends
was a hangout and kids recognized Niles North faces at
Ed Debevics, Medusas. and
at shopping malls. Bump·
kins, McDonalds, The Deli,
or Boudines were places to
"do lunch·· from 10:30 and
1:30. As the school afternoon passed and the last
classes ended, extracurricular activities began. The
weight room; fitness room;
of course. the swimming
pool; and in nice weather
the outdoor track, were
opened for a "workout'".
Many activities shared after
school time. actors practiced for theatre productions. Auroris members
danced and the Forensics
team practiced their ability
to speak. When everthing
was over, the remaining
evening- was left for study,
relaxation, and sleep. When
the 6:30 AM alarm went off
everyone knew what was
ahead of them.

Academics
�In order for the Niles

tern to work effectively and cohesively, a
ring of six important
factors were strung together to form an end
product of great minds
as well as great people. Each factor contrl·
buted to support the
others In their own
special way. The
school administrators,
the first factor, dis·
cussed and solved the
overhead of the educa·
tional and financial de-
clsions concerning the
student body, teach·
ers, and school itself.
The second factor, the
teachers, combined
their love in teaching
and their knowledge to
build up the students'
motivation to learn.
Students, the third fac·
tor, were molded to
their potential by all
other factors. They

activities, were de·
signed to expand and

oped to broaden the
students' horizon in

�" Niles North is dedicated to a pro·
gram of comprehensive education
preparing students for life's work
and leisure." This was the motto
seen on the walls of the school
throughout the year. Both the
school board and the administra·
tion worked together to help make
Niles North operate. The board
members who were elected , de·
spite the numerous number of
write in votes were newcomer
John Lartz, Florence Sutker who
served as a board for three and
half years and incumbents Saul
Weiner and Jonathan Minkus.
Early in the school year the school
board asked Superintendent Ken·
neth Olsen to resign giving no spe·
cific reason . John Hinck became
the new superintendent.
The Niles North administration as
Mr.Giles stated " Is a link and a
chain , each person having a re·
sponsibility to help make the
school operate." All Niles North
directors shared common respon·
sibilities. Directors had to make
sure each teacher ha< a certain
number of classes. Thty also had
two years to evaluate each teach·
er in their department on their

classroom and overall perfor·
mance. Each director also super·
vised extracurricular activities
within the school. They shared the
responsibility of attending both
home and away athletic events,
concerts, dances, and other activi·
ties. Once a week a team meeting
was held in which the directors
shared information and tried to
solve problems in each depart·
ment. " The greatest problem ,"
Dr.Schusteff said, "was not every
student comes out of the same
course with the same knowledge
because of different ways of
teaching." The administration 's
goal was to prepare students for
college and to help them survive
in society.

�Classroom teachers are a part of the
common everyday life of an Niles
North student. " Teachers" include
substitute teachers as well as faculty
staff. What is it that a makes the
Niles North teacher different from
any other teacher in Illinois? How do
teacher teach their class and what
techniques do they use?
Commenting on his teaching tech·
niques Eugene Kuntz said that " I try
get the students involved with hands
on training to what I may be teaching
in class." Kuntz used a variety of
classroom speakers who lectured to
his students. He added that he gets
his student interest in class by using
humor and a positive attitude and
treats students as respectable peo·
pie.
Marla Hoffman, a substitute teacher,
commented that " Students respond
better if you have a good attitude. To
get group partisipation It's good to go
into a classroom expecting the best.
She also added " If I request a student
to calm down and they don 't , I send
them to their dean. There are days
when I'm more tolerant to students
behavior than others.
By using these stratages they can
achieve good foundations for enrich·

�A wide variety of academic power
from the students was unleashed
during the 87·88' school year. All
classes displayed some sort of
this ability whether it was the hard
working Freshmen or the Seniors
with " seniorites". Academics for
students were study habits, home·
work, and classes. Of course, ev·
eryone's study habits differed and
some students didn 't just go to
North for classes.
How did some students deal with
homework and study? Senior Nan·
cy Malabanan remarked , " If I do
my homework in school, I have
more free time at home. " The ma·
jority of her homework was done
in study halls or during her free
time. Sometimes she used the Ii·
brary. " When I go to the library, I
read magazines. I really have no
set schedule as far as homework
is concerned ." Some student9 did
their work at home. The way they
did it was " more advanced ". Ju·
nior Kevin Kohn liked to use his
computer to write papers and ma·
jar projects. " It makes the report
more presentable." To him the
computer was a great way to type
papers but, ' 'I'm not a freak in
computPrs."
Students didn 't attended classes
just at Niles North. Students that
needed classes at· Niles West had
regular schedules at North. These
teens went to West in the morning
and returned in the afternoon. Sen·
ior Steve Lin attended A.P.P.
Physics at Niles West . " I attend
A .P.P. Physics at West because
there are no teachers at North to
teach A.P.P. Physics." Steve
spent half of his morning traveling
back and forth from West to North
and the other half in class. " It's a
pain! Traveling takes up lots of

my time." Which school did Steve
like better? " Niles West, because
their administrators and teachers
are better. It's an enjoyable exper·
ience! " Another program students
used was Oakton Community Col·
lege. The students that went to
0.C.C. were considered the " elite "
because there were very few of
them . " Most of the kids, about
half of one percent, were Sen·
iors. " replied Principal Thomas
Giles. Students attended O .C.C.for
three reasons; Excellerated stu·
dents exceeded the curriculum at
Niles. North; they needecfa prereq·
uisite course to enter an honors or
advanced course at North; or Sen·
iors missed a credit needed to gra·
duate. Students that went to
O.C.C. went at night or sometimes
during their daily schedules. Giles
added, " They're full time students
at North. My preference is that
they take courses in the building
. . . , but Oakton d~s offer a via·
ble alternative."
Allen Kuo
Some students decided not to stick around
the whole time at Niles North during the
87-88 ' year. Seniors George Wang and
Robert Ortega slowly stroll from the bus
that brought them from Niles West to more
classes at North.

�STIMULUS
Classroom activities were used to ca·
ptivate the students ' interest. Teach·
ers were the important presenters of
new material and ideas. They used
interesting approaches to enrich the
class as a whole.
In math classes, computers enabled
the students to understand the mate·
rial better and strengthened their
weaknesses . Mr.George Pryjma pro·
vided " graphmaster" for his math
students. " It was easier to under·
stand the graphs when Mr. Pryjma
programmed them on the comput·
er." stated Helen Rachnovich . Films
and videos helped to visualize written
materials and explain scientific for·
mulas. In English literature classes ,
after the students had studied the
book , the teacher presented the the·
atrical version in order to reinforce
the students' prospective and differ·
ent ideas. Science students thought
video lectures were helpful for under·
standing the theories and formulas.
Labs and experiments also proved to
bring out the students ' attention.
The tradition of approaching the
class with learning material was still
the best method. Homework was one
of the the key to the door of knowl·
edge for the students. Examinations
and quizzes were the frustrating or·
deals in every class. Students were
encouraged by extra credit which
were created to bring out their enthu·
siasm . Participation was also a major
function of class activities. Teachers
tried to motivate class discussions
and debates especially in the litera·
ture and history classes. Teachers
also used other methods to test the
students' study habits by asking
questions. " By drilling questions, the
students are forced to understand the
material. It is an excellent way to get
their attention." commented Mr.
Frank Cardulla. In order for the class
to cooperate and respect the teach·
ers ' presentation, teachers had to
show their love in what they taught.

If they enjoyed their subjects, it was
easier to unleash their extensive
knowledge to the students .
With these unique classroom tech·
niques and the school's facilities the
students were capable of broadening
their limits in achieving the knowl·
edge. Teachers greatly influenced
the students ' anticipation for learn·
ing. Classroom activities prepared
the students for higher education as
well as attracting their excitement.

�Dirersity
Many times, studying alone was not
appropriate for reinforcing what a
student needed to learn . It was at
these times that the facilities of Niles
North (excluding bathrooms) came in
handy. Throughout the years, North
has tried to provide places for stu·
dents to enhance their skills and tal·
ents. Resource Centers and The Individualized Instructional Center (1.1.C.)
enabled students to practice with
their skills as well as increase their
knowledge. This was accomplished
with the help of teachers and other
assistants. In recent years, North has
tried to expand past the traditional
" Math, Science, Social Studies, and
Foreign Language" departments. For
students who were thinking about
pursuing a career in Architecture,
North offered a wide variety of equip·
ment such as drawing boards, a blue
print machine, and computers such
as the Mac-Cad and the Auto·Cad
(Coputer Aided Drafting System) for
students.
Additions such as practice rooms
and the weight cage also gave stu·
dents the oppotunities to do things
which they normally would not be
able to do at home. According to sen·
ior Jeff Chalem, "The weight cage is
a very convenient place to work out.
It's really good for lazy people like
me because it is right in school. If we
didn't have the weight cage, I'd prob·
ably just go straight home after
school to watch t.v. and eat ... Also,
the weight cage saves me money. I
don 't have to go out and buy a mem·
bership at some health club because
the facilities here are just as good as
the ones in the health club."
Senior Howard Holowaty found it
very convenient to have practice
rooms in school because of his busy
time schedule. "Since I usually have
to work or do homework after
school, I don 't really have time to
•

jam on the piano. The only free time I
have is in school . . . Going to the
practice rooms is a nice break in the
school day. It's like being in another
world . . . But I wish we had bigger
practice rooms, better pianos, and
some amps."
North has even tried to expand its
computer facilities by having four
computer labs; for math, business,
and two open for student use. Each
lab was equiped with 32 computers.
For some students, the computer

Through the diverse facilities, it was
evident that Niles North cared about
their students. North provided them

�Vikings On the Go
To add variety and zest to the
average day of a student at Niles
North, field trips and special programs were scheduled in several
times during the year.
Field trips allowed students to see
things that were relevant to what
they were studying, but to do it in
an out of classroom atmosphere.
One class which had an " out of
school experience " was Physiology . Early this spring, Mr. Kuntz
and his two Physiology classes
went to the Gross Anatomy Lab at
Oakton Community College. The
purpose of the trip was to see real
body structures and make clear to
the students what they had only
seen in their text. " We go to the
lab to give students a proper appreciation of the complexity of the
human body and the harmony of
its many parts in relation to each
other," commented Mr. Kuntz.
When they arrived there, professors presented and explained the
parts of the body and allowed the
students to do minor examinations by themselves.
Early this year, advisor Dennis
Grabowski and the yearbook staff
attended a convention in
Whitewater , Wisconsin , to learn
more yearbook production. The
class left early in the morning for
a day of sessions on the latest in
yearbook graphics, design, theme
ideas, and development. Going to
the conference gave insight to the
students on ideas for the Saga 88'.
Senior Barrie Gol~berg replied,
" Returning this year gave me another chance to learn more about
yearbook production and it enhanced my previous knowledge."
Special programs were scheduled
this year to inform students of im·

portant , interesting issues. One
such program was presented to
the freshmen class and was called
Discovery. It was directed by for·
mer Bear Leslie Frazier. The program began with a speech by
Mike Singletary, who spoke
about peer pressure, drugs, alco·
hol , and related it to his life exper·
iences. Editor of the school newspaper, Steve Klawans comment·
ed , " The program was more effec·
tive than usual anti-drug programs
because of the caliber of the
speaker, Mike Singletary. " After
the three-part program, " Myth
Busters" presented humorous
skits about the common peer pres·
sures of drinking and driving.
An informative program that was
open to anyone interested was a
presentation about chewing tobac·
co. James Girdley, a dental hy·
giene advisor for the Illinois De·
partment of Public Health, came
to school in the fall. Throughout
the day, he gave seven presentations about the harmful effects of
chewing tobacco. Student Elisa
Goldman replied, " I think it was a
good program because it has be·
come a habit among teenagers
and they don 't realize how danger·
ous it really is."
Ms. Lillian Mann was responsible
for arranging programs that took
place at Niles North. Her expertise
gave classroom instruction depth
and vitality throughout the year.

�· Joining clubs was important
at Niles North. It was a
great means of meeting
many people and making
new friends. Frequent club
meetings broke up the usual
routine of going to school,
going from class to class,
and going home.
Several clubs benefited the
individual member. Foren-
sics was designed to improve an individual's speaking ability which would be
beneficial throughout life.

During freshmen orienta·

that joining clubs was important. He supported his
point by telling us about a
senior who earned an "almost perfect" grade point
average, and had a great
class standing. The college

The Parent-Teacher Student Association was a club in which

education. Throughout the year, the members of the PTSA met
each month to discuss school issues. " Our goal was to try to
enhance education and build a greater communication between parents, students, and faculty, " explained Mary Mur·
phy. The PTSA not only helped students during their high
school career, but attributed to their college as well . Two
available scholarships were awarded to graduating seniors who
best deserved them for their ach ievemets during their years at
Niles North. " Throughout the year the PTSA sponsored a
variety of educational programs such as having the State
Superintendent of Education speak to parents and faculty, "
stated President Sue Tessler. Money raised for scholarships
was obtained through the selling of entertainment books and
scholarship cards as well as the selling of refreshments at the
football games. "I hope that next year more parents will become involved in the PTSA," remarked Mrs. Sue Tessler.

BOOSTER CLUB
The Athletic Booster Club was started to support athletes

Club consisted mainly of parents who tried to increase school
spirit of other parents and students during the sports seasons .
"We raised money by selling t·shirts, hats, mittens, and work·
ing the concession stand during home games," remarked Presi·
dent Martha Cooley. The Booster Club awarded two senior
girls and two senior boys a $250.00 scholarship in 1987. The
Club sponsered the three award night dinners at the end of
each season. The Club was also there to help, if money was
available, to supplement summer camps for athletes. "When a
team made conference, sectional , regional, or state divisions
we bought t·shirts for the team members, remarked Mrs. Coo·
Iey. Officers included President Martha Cooley, Treasurer
Marge Sikorski, and Secretary Carol Salenger. The Athletic
Booster Club met the third Tuesday of each month to discuss
future activities.

though some of the students
didn't - the feelings, they
were there.
One of the aspects of friend·

ways that the 1tudent1 were

The same goes for the Aur·

physical effort and team·
work to put out their
dances.
Homecoming and Prom
showed us that we have a lot
of friendship and teamwork
by the amount of people
that showed up, by the way
the floats were decorated,
the way the teams played,
and the amount of couples
that appeared at Prom. Also,
a lot of effort and planning
went into making all of the
arrangements.
Graduation was the final
ceremony of four years of
work, friendship , and com·
mltment. We dreamed of our
graduation since our first
day as a freshman. Those
four years will prepare us for
a harder life after high
school.
Throughout the school year
new friendships formed. relationships grew stronger,
and the teamwork was
there. Although friendship
between the students and
faculty wasn't very appar·
ent, it was there. These
friendships helped to make
the special events and the
entire school year more en·
joyable.

�A NIGHT OF ELEGANCE
Elegant, described the '87 Niles
North Prom. In this magical night
girls wore their extravagant dress·
es and guys dressed in their sleek
tuxedos, then they danced until
midnight just like in a fairytale.
The '87 Prom was held at The
Drake Hotel on Michigan Ave·
nue's Magnificent Mile. The ball·
room of The Drake was maroon,
turquoise and gold, with beautiful
crystal chandeliers . On each table
were gold and white flower center·
pieces and mugs filled with choco·
late pretzels. A punch reception
preceded the dinner. Each couple
was greeted by a reception line
made up of Niles North faculty .
After a wonderful three·course din·
ner the traditional crowning of the
Prom King and Queen began. The
room was filled with excitement
as the Junior Class President,
Tina Rafael announced, " The
1987 Niles North Prom King and
Queen are John Yokahona and
Leah Borkovitz." During the even·
ing couples explored the beautiful
Drake Hotel or took carriage rides
in the near north area. After a
glamorous evening filled with
memories. Prom weekend was un·
der way. The following day, some
students went to a Wisconsin re·
sort. Although these people went
their separate ways, Prom '87
gave them an elegant night they
will never forget.

�THE VAMRIRE EMPIRE
"DR~CULA"
To help boost the Halloween spir·
it, the Niles North Theatre Depart·
ment moved the musical from the
spring to fall. "The Dracula Spec·
tacula " was a spooky musical
that was performed a week before
Halloween. The show was about a
naive teacher named Miss Naive
(lrit Levit) who took three stu·
dents to Transylvania on a field
trip. There they met none other
than Dracula (Doug Mytnik) who,
taking an earring from Miss Naive,
gains control over her mind. Miss
Naive and her students are taken
to his castle, where Dracula is
planning to make Miss Naive his
new wife because of her inno·
cence. Dracula's plan was foiled
by the hero Nick Necrophiliac
(Andrew Levin), who just happened to be in love with Miss Na·
ive. Nick ruined Dracula 's plan by
sprinkling Glublick (a liquor harm·
less to the living but acid·like to
the dead) on Dracula's followers.
Two of Nick's helpers drive a
wooden stake into Dracula's
heart. Nadia is so thankful and in
love with Nick that she marries
him. Instead of a happy honey·
moon, Dracula retuns from the
dead, possesses Nadia 's mind, and
she then sucks the blood out of
Nick.
The choreography, scenery, cos·
tumes, and props made the pro·
duction more outstanding. The
choreography was created by
Gretchen Glader. Wild steps and
pelvic thrusts entertained the au·
dience when Nick Necrophiliac
sang the song "Positive Action
Man " . Dracula imitated Michael
Jackson when he sang the song
"Rhesus Negative Rock and Roll" .
Dracula even looked like Michael
with a flashy jacket and sequin
glove provided by the costumes
department. The costumes and
wigs made the chorus numbers hi·
larious. One of the best costumes
was worn by Dracula's mother
(Man Wah Lee). The costume was
part Gypsy and part vintage closet
attire. The tech crew used smoke
tubes to create an eerie aura on
the set. The castle tower was in·
genius. It revolved to reveal Dra·
cula 's lab. The tower was com·
plete with smoke to convince the
audience that Dracula was really

�''NOISES OFF''
Takes It Off
Reading the theater bulletin in Oc·
tober, only nine cast members
were chosen for the play "Noises
Off". Since there were only nine
cast members, they became very
close which also made the play
easier to work with. "Noises" ran
the weekend of November 10-12.
Despite the reviews that "Noises"
received , few students saw the
play because of a basketball bash
and a lack of interest. "The play
was very complex because it had
plots within plots," stated Kim
Berg, "inspite of everything, it
was a good experience." "I
thought the play was very funny,"
remarked Doug Mytnik, "this par·
ticular play was a British comedy
and it was sometimes hard to un·
derstand." British comedies usual·
ly deal more with subtle humor
unlike American one liners which
hit you immediately. Throughout
the play Kevift Golc:¥mith, Doug
Mytnik, and Brian Pomper lost
their trousers from an uncoopera·
tive cactus, some toxic glue, and
just forgetting to pull them back
up after a visit to the bathroom.
Junior, Joel Sachs, stated "Try·
ing out for the play, to the rehears·
als, and finally to the opening
show requires a lot of work, but it
all pays off."

the attendance at the play was "surprising
and overwhelming," according to Lauren
Kurtz, who played one of the Ladies·in
Waiting.
The play contained three different plots,
involving the prince Steven Singer.and the
princess Jacki Greenberg. In keeping with
the tradition of "The Princess and the
Pea," the princess was the last of many to
pass the unfair test given by the queen
Jennifer Berman. This test involved not
only a pea,but also a birdcage, spears, and
suitcases.
"Almost everyone got along really well
with everyone else, which helped the over·
all production of the play," commented
Doug Mytnik in reference to the entire
cast. "I had a fantastic time working with
Edward Mussman and Scott Hirschman. "
The three of us would try to make each
other laugh, even on stage."
The sub-plots in the play were equally
amusing and entertaining.according to
Joann Prekezes: "Whae I enjoyed most
about the play was Scott Hirschman's
miming. He couldn't speak at all because
of a curse and the other character had to
guess everything he was saying," she re·
called.
Needless to say, the hard work and long
hours paid off, and the play was obviously
a great success - not only for those who
were in it, but for the audience as well.

�After wearing the same uniforms
for more than eight years, the
Niles North Marching Vikings decided to introduce a new look. Recently, they replaced their marching pants with bermuda shorts.
"We wore bermuda shorts to grab
the audiences' attention " , stated
Abe Lee. Although the Marching
Band wore boxer shorts for only
the first football game, they tried
to do something different at every
game. Not every difference was
visual like the first game. The differences were mostly musical instead of visual. The music consisted of pop songs instead of the contemporary band songs. This year
several band students attended a
"marching band " camp at the University of Wisconsin, Whitewater,
to brush up on some skills. Norfo
Fujikawa, Jorie Perez, Mary Liz
Bartels, and Heather Scheck went
to the camp to learn how to be
drum majors. Alex Sukoy and
Jenny Pellman used the camp opportunity to improve their percussion skills. Philip Weiss went to
learn everything there was to
know about car leadership skills.
For a week these students attended classes, thirteen hours each
day, with breaks for lunch and dinner. Every night there was an entertaining show which only allowed four to five hours of sleep a
night. " Even though we knew we
were only getting five hours of
sleep, it was the drive that kept us
going'', stated Norlo Fujikawa.
The last day at camp, they had
the summer national marching
band competition . Three aspects
made the marching band more enjoyable in 1987. They included the
new style of music that was
played, the hard work that was
put in by several students at the
camp they attended, and the new
look with the boxer shorts.

One doesn't have to be peppy just dedicated.
Why do cheerleaders go all out to
be peppy? "To go out and represent the school. " explained Nikki
Markowitz.
When it came to a football game, everyone
intensely watc hed. The cheerleaders con·
centra te on the game as well as discuss the
team 's performance.
During the summer, the Vikettes
attended cheerleading camp at
the U. of I. Camp lasted a week,
but it was a long week. Spending
ten hours a day Qracticing paid off
at the end. The Vikettes took first
place in all the required routines,
and not to mention first place over
all.
Being a cheerleader or Vikette required memorizing a lot of rou·
tines, but there were warm memories as a result of the routines." I
remember the time, when every·
one was doing a kickline and
someone's shoe flew into the air.
Everyone laughed and tried to
keep in step. It was almost impos·
sible," recalled Marni Gitler.
Good friends were hard to come by. A

�This was the first time Tichy received such an honor. The record
of the Varsity team was not comparable to that of a world series
team.
The young team beat Stevenson,
who was on a winning streak. This
win brought a great sense of pride
to the players. The Sophomore
team, made up of seventeen players, certainly were playing up to
par. They finished off the Confer·
ence with a record of 12· 10. As for
the Freshman, the A team completed the season with a record of
6· 16 and the B team with a record
of 10-6. Motivation was a necessity for the team. " The attitudes of
the players were very strong and
they always gave 100 percent; for
they knew better days were
ahead." said Coach Jim Sakas.

OUT OF BOUNDS
From the beginning of the season and
continuning to the end, the 1987·88
Boys Varsity Basketball Team had a
very rough and disappointing season.
Even with many veteren players returning, the pressure of school work,
late night games, and lack of sleep
caused the team to end the season
with a record of 3·20. Though they
didn't do as well as they hoped for, the
team still went to practice from 3:30
to 6:00 P.M . The players drilled on the
basics, studied stradegies, and most
important dedicated. "As long as I
know they're trying, I remain patient
and encourage them.", stated Coach
Pete Christie.
The basketball players started out
competitive with high spirits. Unfortu·
nately, the basketball team went into
a slump of losing by four or less
points in most of their games and remained in that slump. With the bad
came the good memories. For exam·
pie, "When the team beat Niles West
or in a game against Mundelein, Mitch
Jacobson was running out on the
court for pre-game warm·ups, and he
tripped over a sophomore's foot. He
landed on his face and kept on going
on all fours." recalled Al Winkler
Good form with the ability to jump high
made it possible to score a basket. Going
through the motions, Mike Binder prepares for a lay up.

In a different atmosphere, the JV play·
ers had an exceptional year. With a
record of 11 ·2, the JV team were able
to go to conference with a chance to
win the championship. JV team mem·
ber, Binel Patel stated, "If we're able
to win Saturday's conference at Niles
North, it will be the high light of our
season."

Being guarded by Mudelein 's defensive
players kept Niles North's team members
aggressive. Matt Molay tries to steal the
ball away from his opponent.
Successful passes were key factors in a
game. Wally Mattner passes a ball to a
teammate to score before the buzzard
sounds.
�Determination was necessay in order to
make a valuable play. Charlie Pearl dribbles away from the opposition.
In the game of basketball not all shots were
easy to make. Mike Dietz tries to score
from the outside.
Occasionally, time out was called for brief
but needed pep talk. Before going back on
the court the Varsity members scream a
motivating cheer.

" We're doing great because every·

Mark Ostrom. His words summa·
rized how the Freshman team felt.
They showed good teamwork and
friendship through victories and
defeats. The Freshman A team
has a 6 and 12 record. The B team
has a 13 and 2 record . According
to coach Marsh, the Freshman A
team should end up in fifth or
sixth place. The B team should be
in second place. " We had a roller
coaster year with its good and bad
points. I think we're doing pretty
good and always improving," said

TEAM UNITY
Was The Key To Their Success
Three, Two, One ... Their twenti·
eth victory for the Girls' Basket·
ball had finally come true. They
had come a long way in order to
achieve their determined goal.
With long and vigorous practices
everyday, the girls had built their
stamina to triumph over their
competitors, and nothing was going to stand in their rampage.
"This year's team was probably
the second finest group of players
ever in this school's history."
commented Coach Clarence Flor·
ence.
Three important factors led the
Varsity Team to a 21 ·5 victory.
The majority of the team were ex·
perienced and skillful players.
" We had to set a good example in
terms in skills and discipline for
Strategic plays were used to lead the team

ing basketball. Danica Petrovic protrays

the younger members." stated
Danica Petrovic. The second fac·
tor was their will to succeed. The
team had set their goal to place
high in conference and worked
hard together to make it come
true. Team unity was their most
important ingredient to success .
" The team as a whole had a com·
mon goal to achieve our potential
together . In fact , individual
achievement was not as impor·
tant as the team ." stated Shari
Rozmus. For the Jnnior Varsity
and the Freshman Teams, it was
time to build their skills and tech·
niques. With this experience, they
had learned to strengthen their
fundamental skills as well as work
together. The Girls' Basketball
team had accomplished a great
deal this season. Not only they
placed second in conference, they

Concentration is very important to insure

Team improves
over course of the
year
Debating whether the ball will be a strike or
a gutter is in everyone's mind. Francine
Smith hoped for a strike.
The girls bowling team had made
great improvement this past year.
At the begining of the season, that
started in November, the team
had an average of 1100 to 1200
pins knocked down, and at the
end of the second week of Fe·
buary their average was up to
1700 pins. The team played 15 to
20 games. They played against
Fenton, Antioch, Warren and Ma·
donna High School in Chicago to
name a few. The bowling team
practiced 3 days a week from 3:30
to 5:30 at Fairlanes Bowl. The
most valuable player was Wanda
O'Quinn and Susan Struthers
was the most improved. Coach
Lange added, "Anyone who is interested in bowling can join. No
experience is necessary, although
a physical must be taken to participate." If someone has a 150
average they could be up for a
scholarship.

During the Spring portion of the
school year there was a team that
was overlooked, Track and Field.
Similarities between the two in·
voJved running and the same
coach. The pole vault, high jump,
and shot put were also parts of
Track and Field. Despite the
team's weak performance, there
were outstanding members. Sen·
ior Eric Fliszar, as a pole vaulter,
w~s named All-Conference and
placed third in the state competi·
tion. Senior Troy Klosterman was
the MVP of the team.
The number of members at the
beginning of the season was higher than that at the end. A main
cause for the low number at the
end of the season was the drop-out
rate from the team. Coach Genge
stated, ''I'd like. to see more kids
come out for the team and stick
with it. They've got the talent, but
don't stay around long enough to

�The
Power of
Unity
Seth Novoselsky.
Pride, loyalty, and integrity were
emphasized by the team and
coaches during the 1987 Football
season . Cooperation was a helpful
factor when the games did not go
as they had hoped. " I was really
happy to see the team pull together during such adversity," com·
mented Coach Giambeluca,
"They did not blame each other
for their losses." They did not win
every game, yet their friendship
remained in tact.
Since football is a rough contact
sport many injuries can occur. As
a result of the injuries, that a few
team members suffered, the team
failed to reach it's full potential.
Brett Schlifka, Jeffrey Cohen,
and James Benjamin were taken
out of the game for injuries. "Mi·
chael Dietz twisted his ankle dur·
ing the game against Mundelein,
which put more pressure on Steven Sand," commented Erik
Slowik. 'Tm willing to take the
risk of getting hurt because I love
the game," explained Seth Novoselsky.
A team' s skills were a way to foretell the outcome of a game. "We
had outstanding passing, great defensive backs, and most importantly a feeling of camaraderie,"
said Giambeluca. " Losing is never
easy to handle, but as the weeks
went on and the losses kept com·
ing, it got a little easier," stated

�OR LOSE
After a disappointing season, the
Junior Varsity Football Team still
felt that they had the potential to
be better. "The one thing that we
don't lack is confidence," stated
Allen Cepeda. "Without confi·
dence and friendship our team
wouldn't be worth much." Towards the end of the season, the
goal was to learn to be better by
handling their losses with the
knowledge that they had done
their best. Perhaps their cup did
not run over with glory from victories, yet the experiences they en·
countered left lasting memories.
What most Niles North students
did no~ know was that the Fresh·
man Football Team had an ex·
tremely successful season. They
finished the season 6-0-1 and went

Champs. "It was really exciting to
win," remarked Mitchel Rubenstein. That excitement coupled
with strong confidence helped the

�The Niles North Boys Gymnastics
Team has made Niles North proud
once again. The 1987 varsity team
scored the highest at the regional
tournament. This is an extraordi·
nary achievement for such a small
team . What made this small team
such a success was their drive,
determination, and practice. The
hard work really paid off for Lee
Wolochuck who won state on the
pommel horse. Lee Wolochuck
wasn't the only one who went to
state. Alan Hirsh and Dror Zetouni joined in the competition . It
paid off in a great way for Alan
Hirsh who won fifth on rings and
went on to become most valuable
player for the 1987 season. Not
only did Alan Hirsh have a very
high number of total points, but
he led the team in high spirit.

It was the period of rebuilding and
strengthening young skillful play·
ers for the Niles North Oolf team.
Although the Varsity team con·
sisted of mainly sophomores, ju·
niors, and one senior, they man·
aged to reach their desired place
in conference. Because of the lack
of freshmen and sophomores, Ju·
nior Varsity was forced to forfeit
most of their conference matches,
yet they played for the experience
and the challenge. Varsity players
except for captain Darin Aryes
and Sonny Gallman were obligat·
eel to play the Varsity and Junior
Varsity matches due to a shortage
of golfers.
The team worked vigorously ev·
ery day after school at Glenc:oe
Oolf Course, With baskets of golf
balls, they practiced putting, chipping, and driving for about four
hours each day. They started
practice early in mid·August to
prepare themselves for the upcoming season. Coach Joe Rusk
taught the players the fundamental skills as well as new strategies.
..This year the team learned from
their mistakes which would enable them to improve and grow
skillfully for the next season,"
stated Coach Joe Rusk.
make the year successful. " I feel
that we worked well together as a
team, next year with experience
under our belts we will compete
aggressively and set upon higher
goals to achieve." commented·
Sonny Gallman.
Working with limited number of
players, they achieved their goals
to improve and build their skills in
order prepare themselves for the
next season. The golf team had
their ups and downs with their
close matches. " At one match we
came up short by one hole. It was
frustrating and disappointing to
accept the news," said Coach Joe
Rusk . The golf team pulled them·
selves up and they succeeded in
rebuilding their skills for the up·
coming season.

Some golfers played competitively and consistently throughout the

�"HEAD OVER HEALS"
TEAMMATES KEEP UP
HIGH SPIRITS
One of the hardest obstacles that
a gymnastics team could face is a
lack of man power. The 1987
Freshman and Sophomore teams
had to face such an obstacle.
Through a lot of hard work and
patience two great teams came
into existance. Under the training
of coaches Goone, Cress, and Sokalski , the teams learned valuable
skills and techniques that will
show in the years to come. Prac·
tice after practice the teams
worked on such events as floor
exercise, the pommel horse, the
still rings, the horizontal bar, and
the parallel bars. William Sikorski
was named Most Valuable Player
due to his high scores at meets
and versitility. Neal Sillins, of The
Freshman Gymnastics Team,
said, "What made the gymnastics
team so great was that we all
worked together as a team, we all
supported each other and that
shined through at the meets"
The parallel bars took a lot of strength and
stamina. Philip Weiss holds a handstand
while keeping perfect form .
Concentrating was essential for a good per·
formance. Sam Kim pays close attenion to
the bar for the best possible score he can
get.
Every little bit of advise helped. Coach
Sokalski gives Brian McDaniel some point·

the team consisted of sophomores. They were a great asset to
the team.
The Varsity and Junior Varsity
teams practiced together every·

Boys Soccer Goes

With hard work and a team of who
wouldn't quit, Boys Soccer set out in
a new direction. " Our defense was
our biggest strength this year" said
Coach William Coulsen. A defense
that included goalie Marcello Freitas
and all-conference selections Walt Al·
vendia and Nick Gatzionis.
The one key weakness was a scoring
offense which seemed to be coming
back under the direction of all·state
team member Dan Yonan. Yonan
this year scored 15 goals and 6 as·
sists. " On the field Dan is a fierce
competitor" said Walt Alevendia.
Yonan was the second person in four
years to be named to the all·state
" eam . "It was a great feeling, and I
t
know that I won't have to answer
those questions anymore, like are
you going to make all·state like your

The most valuable players of the
8&87 girls Varsity Soccer team
were Shari Rozmus and Marlo
Kantor. Shari set the state scoring
record with 49 goals that broke a
Niles North record. Shari was nominated for All·American.
A soccer game was cancelled
once in six years due to a terrible
thunderstorm. The girls Varsity
Soccer team won 17 games, lost 5
and tied twice. The minimum
number of games played in a sea·
son was 17, plus tournaments
they can enter. Half of the total of
25 games were away and the rest
of them were played at home. Mr.
Coulson has been a soccer coach
in the District since 1973 and has
coached Girls Soccer since the 8081 season.
Keeping the ball away from the opponent
was the thought in all soccer players
minds. Marlo Kantor focuses her eye on
the ball while picking up speed.
The soccer season lasted from
February 3rd to May 3rd for approximately three and a half
months. Unfortunately the stu·
dent body does not come out to
see the games. "The attendance is
very poor," said coach Coulson.
Team spirit was very important in all
sports . Shari Rozmus and Julie Finkel

have won first in Conference, but
the support and help we gave
each other proved that we were
winners! "
A high point of the season was
having M.V.P. Marlo Kantor make
All·Conference. It was the first
time in six years that a girl tennis
player achieved the honor. Ac·
cording to Coach Mark Recker,
"Marlo was a great athlete, had a
competitive attitude, and was al·
ways working to improve her
skills. " Marlo commented, " Towards the end of the season, when
I thought I had a chance for All·
Conference, Coach Recker gave
me the confidence I needed to
win ."
The Junior Varsity Team finished
their season with a 6·7· 1 record.
Coach Carl Field stated, "Some of

to play on the Varsity team next
season."
Carol Mui recalled one unforgetta·
ble experience. "It was game
point, I faulted once, and had to
make the next shot. I added too

�Challenges and difficulties
plauged the overall preformance
of the Varsity Volleyball Team
during their season. "Our season
really wasn't as good as last
year, " stated Senior Rhonda
Wendt. "Especially with the loss
of our five graduating senior start·
ers". The majority of the Varsity
T earn consisted of underclass·
man . These underclassmen
lacked a lot varsity playing exper·
ience, which also contributed to
the teams difficulties.
The Varsity Team finished their
season with a record of 5-18-1.
This record didn't really show
their capacity though. " People
don't seem to realize that we play
against very competative schools,
such as Evanston (19-2), " commented Coach Sue Colantonio.
This year, Coach Colantonio tried
a new game plan rotation in order
to improve the team both offensively and defensively.
Bump,
Set,
Spike!
Moving On
With Determination
from fans, " commented Coach
Colantonio. " Fans motavate the
team to do better and try harder.
They pick the whole team up and
help carry the momentum."
The Junior Varsity Volleyball
Team also had their share of hard
times. With a record of 2-22, team
members realized that togetherness was essential for victory.
"When we didn't play together,
the whole team fell apart, but still
we worked hard to play well and
to keep the team together, " commented Sophomore Susie Herr.
The Junior Varsity program provided the preparation needed for
girs planning to play on Varsity in
the future.
Joann Bautista
The thing that the Varsity Team
seemed to lack most of all were
fans. " We need more support
Although there were several stum·
bling blocks throughout the season , these difficulties brought the
team closer together. " We all became friends, " stated Rhonda
Wendt. " We worked very well together and had good camaraderie " .

�Phy_sical Derotion
Words They Lived
y
Varsity Wrestling was the ultimate
in physical activity. Devotion and
concentration were the words
they lived by. The wrestlers could
not maintian a level of commit·
ment and dedication without
some help. The help of the
coaches and the Wrestlettes was
important to keep their level of
concentration. Wrestling also built
character for these students.
Chang Hwang commented "It's a
hard sport, the commpetition is
tough and you have to be very
dedicated to remain on the team.

Training To Be The Best
The Freshman Wrestling Team
was an experience for new students to challlenge their body and
their mind for a tough and demanding sport. Wrestling was a
sport that took a lot of training
and dedication. They trained to be
the best. A wrestler had to be committed to the sport. Freshman
Mike Sher commented " If you
want to get in shape, join the wrestling team. It's demanding and
takes a lot of time. If your mind
and body are not committed , this
is not the sport for you ."

Another year has
come and gone! Reflecting back upon the
87-88 year, we not
only saw, as the book
theme states, an "Un·
leashing of Power",
but also agony, frustra·
tion, defeat, accom·
plishment and victory.
Tears and sweat were
seen on student's
faces as they involved
themselves in academ·
lcs, arts, and sports.
Not every accomplish·
ment was perfect or
even sucessful, but it
is said, "Trying is what
counts!"
The stage was bare,
the halls were empty,
and the rooms were
quiet, but "Unleashing
the Power" did not
stop. Some graduated
Seniors pursued a
higher and more "pow·
erful" education, while
others applied their
skills in the outside
world. For the Juniors,
Sophomores, and new
Freshmen, power was
revived in September.
One day you'll look
back at this book and
say, "Boy, was that
really me?" Well, just
remember. out of all
your collections of SA·
GA's on your shelf,
this is the one which
"Unleashes the Pow·
er" in you, and the
SAGA continues
